  SHRINK WINDOW

  Shrinks the height of the current window by a specified number of lines,
  if you are using two or more windows in EVE.

  Example:

     The following commands split the current window into two windows of
     equal size and then shrink the new, lower window by five lines:

        Command: TWO WINDOWS
        Command: SHRINK WINDOW 5

  Usage notes:

  o  SHRINK WINDOW subtracts lines from the bottom of the window unless it
     is the bottommost window:

        |               |        |               |
        |               |        |               |
        |---------------|        |               |    The cursor position
        |[]             |        |---------------|    ([]) in the buffer
        |               |        |[]             |    does NOT change.

  o  The maximum size and number of windows in EVE depend on the size and
     type of your terminal. The minimum size is 1 line for text plus 1 line
     for the status line, and on DECwindows, 1 line for the horizontal
     scroll bar. Thus, with a 21-line main window (as on a VT220 terminal),
     you can have 11 windows, each displaying one line of text.

     Windows.
