Steps:

2. Type a command, You can abbreviate commands, using the first
such as FILL. letters of the command terms, sometimes less.
3. Press either EVE executes the command, or prompts you for

Usage notes:
o Pressing DO twice repeats the last command you typed. If you press DO
and then press RETURN---without typing a command---no command is
executed and you resume editing. See help on Canceling.
o You can have more than one key defined as DO. For example, you may
want to define CTRL/D as DO, to make it easier when you use EVE with
different keyboards which may not have a function key named DO.
o If you are accustomed to EDT, you can redefine CTRL/Z as DO, to emulate
EDT-style "exit-to-line-mode."
