/sys$common/syshlp/EVE$HELP.HLB  —  NEXT_SCREEN
  NEXT SCREEN

  Scrolls vertically to show the next screen's worth of text, if any---
  roughly, the length of the current window.

  Key:   EVE default        VT100 keypad
         -------------------------------
         NEXT SCREEN        KP0

  Usage notes:

  o  If the cursor is free (default setting), it moves down in the same
     column on the screen, regardless of whether text is there or not.
     Conceptually, the cursor remains in the same position on the screen
     while the buffer scrolls down.

  o  If the cursor is bound, it moves up to the corresponding line position,
     depending on the shape of your text (as with EDT, WPS, and other
     editors).

  o  For continuous movement, you can hold down or repeat NEXT SCREEEN until
     you reach the bottom of the buffer. NEXT SCREEN does not move the
     cursor across window boundaries (if you use more than one window in
     EVE). To move between windows, use the NEXT WINDOW command.

  o  The EDT keypad redefines the NEXT SCREEN key on the mini keypad to
     scroll 75% of the window size.
