 FILL PARAGRAPH

 Fills (reformats) the current paragraph according to the margins of the
 buffer, so that the maximum number of words fits on a line.

 Steps:

    1.  Put the cursor anywhere in the paragraph you want to fill.

    2.  Use FILL PARAGRAPH or with the EDT keypad, press GOLD/KP8; with
        the WPS keypad, press GOLD/KP5.

 The cursor moves to the end of the paragraph.  "Paragraphs" are bounded by
 any of the following:

    o  Blank lines
    o  Top or bottom of the buffer
    o  Page breaks
    o  RUNOFF commands (such as .B)

 FILL PARAGRAPH erases tabs and spaces at the start and end of a paragraph
 but does not affect tabs and spaces in the middle of a paragraph.
