	Someone sent me email and included an AREXX script for the job.  
His newserver isn't up, so I'm posting this for him.  I've included the

James, this Arexx script will handle your request to cursor up or down
a screen:
 
"/* screendown.fw */"
do i = 1 to 24
	Cursor Down
	End
 
You may need to change the '24' to a different number depending on
what screen resolution or size you use.
 
Change Cursor Down to Cursor Up to go up a screen.
 
Attach these to a function key and you've got what you needed.
 
I'd post these to Usenet, but my newsreader server is down now...
so, if you'd be so kind as to do so for me, I'd greatly appreciate
it.
 
BTW, if you have any FW Macros/scripts you've written, or have obtained
from someone else, please send to me; I collect them, and occasionally
post a list of FinalWriter macros to Usenet.
 
(Oh, just in case:  be sure to take the quotes off the first line of
the macro...they have to be there for my mail service, but will foul
up the Arexx server.
