[gnu.emacs] Automatic scrolling of window

jlk@daimi.dk (Jorgen Lindskov Knudsen) (07/17/89)

I have a system, where I am using a window, in which I occationally display
output from various programs, initiated from other windows (emacs windows).
The typical case is a window showing a TeX document, and then a keyboard
command running TeX on that buffer.

I have managed to make sure that the Shell-buffer (running the TeX processor)
becomes visible upon initiating TeX, but I haven'd succeded in making the
window auto-scrolling (unless of cource the cursor is in that window, and
point is at the end of the buffer).

Is there any way of forcing a window always to display point in the window,
thereby making the window auto-scroll, as the TeX processor displays error
messages and other info, without having to force the cursor into the window?

Please reply through e-mail since I am not usually monitoring this newsgroup.
