https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32414942/python-scroll-speed At least on Win7, tk.Texts scroll, by default, at an anemic 2-3 lines per wheel click, ignoring the system wheel setting. What happens on other systems? I consider this a probable tk bug, at least on Widows, but we can override the default (on Windows) with def mousescroll(event): return 'break' text.bind('', mousescroll) turtledemo.__main__ has wheel code (for font resizing) for Windows, Linux, and Mac. Unless we can access system settings, we might add a config option. |

On X Window the scroll step in text widget is constant (50 pixels). On Windows and Mac OS it should depend on mouse settings. Run with, execute bind . {puts %D} and try to roll mouse wheel on Tk window with different speed and settings. |

The SO OP reported Idle Shell and Editor behavior. I retested minimal tk.Text(root).pack(), eliminating Idle as a factor, before and after changing system lines setting from 3 to 9, and got the constant same behavior. The now too small 50 pixels seems about what it is doing. Serhiy, I do not understand your 'Run ...' sentence. |

You can measure your mouse speed with following pure Tcl/Tk script. |

> Serhiy, I do not understand your 'Run ...' sentence. Sorry, there was a typo in my sentence. I meant "Run the program 'wish' and enter the following command". |

This is 'out of date' in the sense that I have decided that the root problem is scrolling by pixels instead of lines. Once we do the latter, for #33664, we can just scroll by, say, 5 lines instead of 3, which I think is sufficient. |
