Page Scrolling

Use [count] ctrl+e to scroll the window downwards [count] lines. [count] ctrl+y to scroll upwards.

Really usefull is ctrl+d to scroll the half page down and ctrl+u to scroll half the page up. As a side note: "half the page" is only the default. You can use set scroll=[count] to define this behaviour.
