EVE PREVIOUS_SCREEN — VMS 5.2

 PREVIOUS SCREEN

 Scrolls vertically to show the previous screen's worth of text, if any --
 roughly, the length of the current window.

 o  The cursor moves up in the same column or relative position the line.
    (For example, with a free cursor, it moves up in the same column.)
    You can repeat the operation until you reach the top of the buffer.

 o  Using PREVIOUS SCREEN does not move the cursor across window boundaries
    (if you are using more than one window).  To put the cursor into the
    previous window, use the PREVIOUS WINDOW command.
