Documentation

Non-nil to scroll the *grep* buffer window as output appears.

Setting it causes the grep commands to put point at the end of their output window so that the end of the output is always visible rather than the beginning.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 22.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 22.1.
