When these three buttons are pressed, the viewOverviewScript,
viewScrollUpScript and viewScrollDownScript methods of the frontmost
view with the vApplication flag set are called.
You just need to set the flag and implement the methods.

All that is probably described in the Views chapters of the NPG & the NPR.
