FORWARD
(Default.) Sets the direction of the buffer to forward---to the right and
down.
Key: The EDT keypad defines KP4 as FORWARD.
Usage notes:
o The direction affects searches and some cursor-movement commands, such
as MOVE BY LINE and similar EDT or WPS keys. For a list of these
commands and keys, see help on CHANGE DIRECTION.
o You can use a key defined as FORWARD as a terminator key for FIND or
WILDCARD FIND to make the search begin in that direction:
1. Using FIND or WILDCARD FIND, let EVE prompt for the
search string.
2. Type the search string, and then press a key defined as FORWARD.
If you press RETURN instead, the search starts in the current direction
of the buffer.
o The Forward or Reverse indicator on the status line is a toggle button
---clicking MB1 on the indicator is the same as using CHANGE DIRECTION.
See help on Status Line.
