#4 Use space bar to advance within page

Great app, thanks for your work!

I have a smaller monitor and two things would help a lot.

Firstly, a "Fit to width" display option; ie. instead of full-size or fit
to screen have an option to resize the images to fit the current
width of the window. Sometimes the scans are too large and
scrolling up and down is ok but having to scroll up down left and
right to read a page is too fiddly.

Second, a "scroll page" option; ie. instead of holding down the
"down arrow" button to see the bottom of a page, it would be more
convenient to be able to use the spacebar to scroll down to view
the next 1/2 or 1/3rd of the page (and if already viewing the final
1/3rd of the page of course the spacebar would display the next
page, as normal).

With these two option, users with smaller monitors could read a
comic only using one key (spacebar) - much easier than all the
mucking about with the scroll keys.

Thanks again!

fit to width: easy, most of the code is already there, i'm just too lazy to map it to the user interface. anyway, 0.9.2 should get this once i reworked the image handling.

scrolling: i have a 1600x1200 display and always read at "scale to fit", that's why scrolling currently isn't very usable. this has a low priority unless people convince me otherwise.

Good news: 0.9.2 has the image handling reworked, I and increased the priority of this request.

Zoom to fit height/width is in the CVS.
