Example:
Command Purpose or effects
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. REPEAT 5 Tells EVE to repeat the next operation five times.

2. ERASE WORD Erases five words, starting with the current word.
o Similarly you can repeat a typing key, such as to enter a row of dashes
or asterisks.
o CTRL/C may cancel a repeat operation, but its use is NOT recommended,
because CTRL/C is not recorded in the journal file. If you use CTRL/C,
you should immediately exit, writing out your buffers, and then restart
the editing session.
o If you are using the EDT or WPS keypad, you can repeat operations by
pressing the GOLD key (typically PF1), typing a number, and then typing
a command or pressing a key.
o To repeat the last command you typed, simply press DO twice.
