=========== that topic. Press ENTER to select that topic.
Level changes With network files, press the RIGHT arrow to select
============= subtopics (same as pressing ENTER). Use the LEFT arrow
or press the DEL key to move to parent topics.
Back jumps After selecting a sequence of jumps with ASCII files,
========== press F3 to jump back to previously displayed files.
Scroll select With ASCII files, the PLUS (+) and MINUS (-) keys scroll
============= a highlight line to select jumps to other files.
Vertical scroll The PgUp/PgDn, HOME, and END keys scroll the text in
=============== both network and ASCII files.
Horizontal scroll With ASCII files, the RIGHT and LEFT arrows shift the
================= display horizontally to display information from column
1 to column 255.
