At times, you will need to do partial scrolling to view a whole procedure or paragraph at one time. To avoid tiresome typing of numeric arguments for positioning window contents, emacs offers a rule of four (the following commands do not contain numbers): CONTROL-U means 4 CONTROL-U CONTROL-U means 16 CONTROL-U CONTROL-U CONTROL-U means 256 CONTROL-U CONTROL-U CONTROL-U CONTROL-U means 1024 and so on. For quick partial scrolling of a tall window you may find it convenient to use repeated sequences of: CONTROL-U CONTROL-V to scroll down 4 lines CONTROL-U META-V to scroll up 4 lines CONTROL-U
CONTROL-U CONTROL-V to scroll down 16 lines
