You might want to take a look at the Xlogmaster source since it does
exactly that... check out the homepage at

    http://www.gnu.org/software/xlogmaster/xlogmaster.html

and find a FTP mirror near you. 

The Xlogmaster does scroll to the end of the text and then keeps the
vertical scrollbar on a constant position relative to the end of the
file...

Regards,
