EVE SHOW_SUMMARY — VMS 5.5

 SHOW SUMMARY

 Shows statistics and other information about EVE.  This information is
 useful for TPU programming or in case you have to submit a software
 performance report (SPR).  It includes the following:

    o  Version number of the software
    o  Current journal file specification, if any
    o  Current section file specification
    o  Total number of buffers (system- and user-created)
    o  Modules used in the section file
    o  Other information about the EVE configuration

 Steps:

    1.  Use SHOW SUMMARY.  The information appears appears in EVE's Show
        buffer, using a single, large window.

    2.  To scroll through the list, if necessary, press the up and down
        arrows or other cursor-movement keys.

    3.  To return to the buffer you were editing, press DO or a key defined
        as RESET (for example, GOLD-SELECT).

 The output from SHOW SUMMARY remains in the Show buffer until you do
 another SHOW command (or until you exit from the editor).  To write out
 the information, such as for submitting an SPR or to keep a record of your
 customized version of EVE, use the following commands---in this case,
 writing the Show buffer to a file named SUMMARY.LIS:

    Command: BUFFER SHOW
    Command: WRITE FILE summary.lis
