zh Move the view on the text [count] characters to the
left, thus scroll the text [count] characters to the
right. This only works when 'wrap' is off.
*zL*
zL Move the view on the text half a screenwidth to the
right, thus scroll the text half a screenwidth to the
left. This only works when 'wrap' is off.
*zH*
zH Move the view on the text half a screenwidth to the
left, thus scroll the text half a screenwidth to the
right. This only works when 'wrap' is off.
For the following two commands the cursor is not moved in the text, only the
text scrolls on the screen.
*zs*
zs Scroll the text horizontally to position the cursor
at the start (left side) of the screen. This only
works when 'wrap' is off.
*ze*
ze Scroll the text horizontally to position the cursor
at the end (right side) of the screen. This only
works when 'wrap' is off.

5. Scrolling synchronously *scroll-binding*
Occasionally, it is desirable to bind two or more windows together such that
when one window is scrolled, the other windows are also scrolled. In Vim,
windows can be given this behavior by setting the (window-specific)
'scrollbind' option. When a window that has 'scrollbind' set is scrolled, all
other 'scrollbind' windows are scrolled the same amount, if possible. The
behavior of 'scrollbind' can be modified by the 'scrollopt' option.
When using the scrollbars or the mouse wheel, the binding only happens when
scrolling the window with focus (where the cursor is). You can use this to
avoid scroll-binding for a moment without resetting options.
When a window also has the 'diff' option set, the scroll-binding uses the
differences between the two buffers to synchronize the position precisely.
Otherwise the following method is used.
*scrollbind-relative*
Each 'scrollbind' window keeps track of its "relative offset", which can be
thought of as the difference between the current window's vertical scroll
position and the other window's vertical scroll position. When one of the
'scrollbind' windows is asked to vertically scroll past the beginning or end
limit of its text, the window no longer scrolls, but remembers how far past
the limit it wishes to be. The window keeps this information so that it can
maintain the same relative
