Streaming text appears below the visible Emacs window

[gnusupport]

After git pull I could see many improvements you made, thank you. Now I am observing that streaming text often goes below the visible Emacs window, and then I need to scroll down to see it, while before the scrolling was automatic, if I remember well.

Ah yes, this was intended as it enables moving the point or scrolling elsewhere while response is in progress. It should, however, jump to the end of the reponse when finished. Is that what you're observing?

In my case it does jump to the end of the response when chatgpt is done. I am getting used to that since the realtime scrolling in other emacs buffers spoiled me. there is this urge to scroll immediately and also the possibility to think nothing happened the AI is hanging/frozen. Not sure what the nicest way would be.

I prefer to see text being written in Emacs during the time it is being written, and not something being written and invisible in Emacs just to appear later. Use cases may vary. Text I am getting from ChatGPT is long.

Could a reposition of the gpt prompt when starting to reply to the top of the buffer be a compromise? … but maybe that’s disorienting (layout shift)

The behaviour I'd like to eventually adopt is similar to eshell's... if point is at end of the buffer automatically scroll on new text arrival. Otherwise keep location. This should appeal to both camps. Not had time to look into adding this.
