Hi fellow Greasemonkey users!

I made this script because I wanted to test whether scrolling webpages could be made easier. It worked quite well and I hope you find it as useful as I have.

Script is very easy to understand: When mouse comes near edge of page, it starts scrolling slowly that way. Speed is quite slow because if you start scrolling by accident you can then easily stop before page moves too much. In page centre there is big area where you can move mouse normally, so it doesn't interfere with your normal browsing.

Most obvious use cases are:

  • Laptops without mouse
  • Mouses without scroll wheel
  • Long texts where repeating scrolling would be nuisance
  • Lazy users who love easiness. : )
