Good evening,

Is there a possibility to show horizontal scroll bars within the diff pane in gitk? I've some files with extraordinary long lines (say 150+ columns or even more). Depending on the font in use I cannot see all diffs and would like to scroll to the right easily. I know that I can select the text and move the mouse rightwards (with MB1 being pressed) and then the text also scrolls, but that's not convenient. Is there a way to tell gitk to come up with horizontal scroll bars in the diff pane?
