;;; Tookit scroll bars.

-;; timeouts which toolkit scroll bars use to implement auto-repeat.
-;; As a workaround, we start a timer whenever a scroll bar action
-;; occurs, and remove it again when are notified that the user no
-;; longer interacts with the scroll bar. The timer function gives Xt
-;; the chance to call Xt timeout functions.
