Description

The standard scrollbar actually only shows where you are in the file. That is, it does not perform the function of moving with the mouse buttons ... Can Micro use the scrollbar of the terminal from which it is launched?

Done means scrollbar interaction moves through the file with mouse buttons rather than only indicating the current position.
