Maybe turn the scrollbar setting in System Preferences -> General, to "Always". There are no arrow buttons, but clicking in the scrollbar area will let it jump up/down (or there's a pref to make clicking the scrollbar area jump directly to the position clicked on, but that's probably less useful here.
