Though I'll note that my recenter-non-flashy is not perfect, and since the
flashyness is only a problem with x11 emacs and I use -nw, I use at home:
(defadvice next-line (after scroll-with-cursor activate)
"scroll the window as you move the cursor"
(recenter))
(defadvice previous-line (after scroll-with-cursor activate)
"scroll the window as you move the cursor"
(recenter))
I don't use this, I lie, I'm using a small screen and so I keep the cursor at
the very beginning and end of the screen like so:
(defadvice next-line (after scroll-with-cursor activate)
"scroll the window as you move the cursor"
(recenter (window-height)))
(defadvice previous-line (after scroll-with-cursor activate)
"scroll the window as you move the cursor"
(recenter 0))
