  EDT FndNxt

  Searches for another occurrence of a string already entered with FIND,
  GLOBAL REPLACE, REPLACE, or WILDCARD FIND, and highlights the found text
  (similar to FIND NEXT).

  Steps:

     1.  Optionally, set the direction of the buffer---press the WPS Advance
         key (KP0) for forward direction or WPS Backup key (KP1) for reverse
         direction.  Otherwise, the search will begin in the direction of
         your last FIND.

     2.  Press the EDT FndNxt key (PF3).

  Usage notes:

  o  If there is no occurrence in the initial direction, EVE automatically
     searches in the other direction.  If there is an occurrence in that
     direction, EVE asks if you want to go there---press RETURN for Yes, or
     type No and press RETURN.

  o  If an occurrence is found, EVE puts the cursor at the start of the
     found text, and highlights the found text in bold video.  If there is
     no occurrence, a message tells you that EVE could not find the string.

  o  To edit the found text, use a command or key that works on a range or
     box, such as COPY, BOX CUT, FILL, REMOVE, or EDT ChngCase.  If SET BOX
     SELECT is in effect, an editing operation on the found range uses the
     start and end of the range as diagonally opposite corners of a box---
     see help on Ranges And Boxes.

  o  To cancel the highlighting, move the cursor out of the found range or
     use RESET (with the EDT keypad, press GOLD-PERIOD).

  o  If there is no search string---for example, if you have not yet done a
     FIND---then FndNxt moves the cursor to the nearest end of line.
