[SOLVED] Vim: scrolling down while keeping cursor in middle of screen

Hello all,

I am using vim and I think I have accidentally pressed some key combination or something,
that triggered the following functionality: now, when I press j or k, the text scrolls down or up
but the cursor is always in the middle position..

Does anybody know how did I do that?! I find it really convenient. I did some googling but
couldn't figure out anything.

Thanks a lot in advance.

I'm at loss why haven't you found it, as googling for 'vim keep cursor in the middle' returned it as the first hit.
