EVE SHOW_SYSTEM_BUFFERS — VMS 5.0

 SHOW SYSTEM BUFFERS

 Lists the buffers created by EVE and puts the cursor in the list.  You can
 then use SELECT to view a buffer without having to type its name.

 Steps:

    1.  Use SHOW SYSTEM BUFFERS to list the buffers created by EVE.
    2.  Put the cursor on a buffer name, such as MESSAGES.
    3.  Press the SELECT key to view that buffer in the current window.

 This definition of SELECT applies only when you use SHOW BUFFERS or SHOW
 SYSTEM BUFFERS.

 Note:  Do NOT delete system buffers.  Some system buffers (marked
        "permanent" in the list) cannot be deleted.
