: : Quick question to anyone that can answer: is there any way other
: : than using the mouse and scroll bar to move down a document (or up) by
: : one screen? I notice arrow-type functions allowing for next line, end of
: : line, end of doc, but no 'next screen'.
: : -------------------------------------------------------------------------
:
: Do you have the manual?
:
: If so you might know how to turn on the page click buttons which will
: sort of do this but you must use the mouse.

: Wrong answer. Or, right answer to the wrong question. He wants to move a
: screen, not a page.
: There are vertical scrolling tools on the right-hand side of the screen.
: Two of those tools are arrows - for slow, line-by-line scrolling. The
: other is a column containing a button. Grab the button and you can drag
: it quickly and, sometimes, accurately. Click on the part of the column
: -not- occupied by the drag-button and the view will jump one (if your
: click is clean) screen in the direction indicated. James: thanks for
: piquing my curiousity.

Or you might write a small Arexx script to move the cursor down the correct
number of lines based on your screen size and attach it to a key
combination. It would be nice though, to have access to all the keys,
not just function and modifiers.
