EVE MOVE_BY_PAGE — VMS 5.1-B

 MOVE BY PAGE

 Moves the cursor to the next or previous page break, depending on the
 current direction (shown in the status line).

 Steps:

    1.  If necessary, set the direction you want to move in.  For example,
        with the EDT keypad, press KP4 for FORWARD, or KP5 for REVERSE.

    2.  Use the MOVE BY PAGE command.  (See key list below).

 o  In forward direction, the cursor moves to the next page break or to the
    bottom of the buffer.  In reverse direction, it moves to the previous
    page break or to the top of the buffer.

 o  A "hard" page break is a form feed, appearing as a small FF.  See help
    on INSERT PAGE BREAK.  A "soft" page break is a form feed followed a
    null character (small FF and small NL).  See help on PAGINATE.

 Keys:  The following keys are each defined as MOVE BY PAGE:

        EDT Keypad     WPS Keypad
