EVE NEXT_WINDOW — VMS 5.5

 NEXT WINDOW

 Puts the cursor at your last position in the next window, if you are using
 two or more windows in EVE (same as OTHER WINDOW).

 Key:  EVE defines GOLD-NEXT SCREEN on the mini keypad as NEXT WINDOW.

 Example:

    The following shows the effects of NEXT WINDOW if you have three
    windows:

    +---------------+    From the top window, the cursor returns to
    |[] cursor      |    your last position in the middle window.
    |_______________|
    |      []       |    From the middle window, the cursor returns to
    |_______________|    your last position in the the bottom window.
    |  []           |
    |               |    From the bottom window, the cursor returns to
    +---------------+    your last position in the top window.

 Usage notes:

 o  If you use only two windows, NEXT WINDOW, OTHER WINDOW, and PREVIOUS
    WINDOW are the same.  For more information about using multiple windows
    in EVE, see help on Windows.

 o  If the $CHOICES$ buffer is displayed, such as when you type an
    ambiguous command, you can press a key defined as NEXT WINDOW to move
    between the $CHOICES$ buffer and the command line.  See help on Choices
    Buffer.

 o  GOLD-NEXT SCREEN is a "sleeper" key---it is defined by default, but the
    definition must be activated by setting a GOLD key or by setting the
    EDT or WPS keypad.  See help on Gold Keys.
