Re: scrollbar on left side

[Jörg-Volker Peetz <jvpeetz@web.de>]

For KDE I don't know.
For other applications like xterm or rxvt it can be customized with
X-settings, e.g., in ~/.Xdefaults

XTerm*scrollBar:		True
XTerm*rightScrollBar:		True
XTerm*scrollBar_right:		True

URxvt*scrollBar:		True
URxvt*scrollBar_right:		True

The emacs editor has its own config-file where one can set

(cond (window-system (set-scroll-bar-mode 'right)))

For gnome-applications the search for "scrolled-window-placement"
results in a setting in ~/.gtkrc-2.0

gtk-scrolled-window-placement = top-right
