  TWO WINDOWS

  Splits the current window into two windows. This lets you view different
  buffers at the same time or different parts of the same buffer.

  Steps:

     1.  Use the TWO WINDOWS command. The cursor appears in the new, lower
         window. Each window has its own status line, and displays the
         buffer you are currently editing.

     2.  To put a different buffer or file in the new window, use one of
         the following commands:

            BUFFER      NEXT BUFFER      PREVIOUS BUFFER
            GET FILE    OPEN             SHOW BUFFER
            NEW         OPEN SELECTED    SHOW SYSTEM BUFFERS

  Example:

     The following commands split the current window in two and put another
     file (BETA.TXT) into the new, lower window, so you can view and edit
     two files at the same time:

        Command: TWO WINDOWS
        Command: GET FILE beta.txt

  Usage notes:

  o  To form three or more windows, use SPLIT WINDOW and specify the number
     of windows you want. For example, SPLIT WINDOW 3 creates three windows
     of equal size.

  o  The maximum number of windows in EVE depends on the size and type of
     terminal you use. Thus, with a 21-line main window, you can have 11
     windows, each displaying a line of text.

  o  For more information about using multiple windows in EVE, see help on
     Windows.
