REPEAT
Repeats the next command or keystroke as often as you specify, without
your having to retype it.
Example:
The following commands erase ten lines, starting with the current line:
REPEAT 10
ERASE LINE
o The repeat count must be greater than 1. To repeat the last command
you typed, simply press DO twice.
o CTRL/C may cancel or halt 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, to save your work, and
then restart the editing session.
o 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 cancel a pending repeat count, use the RESET command (press
GOLD-SELECT on the mini keypad, or with the EDT or WPS keypad, press
GOLD-PERIOD on the keypad).
