                      Suppose you are using EDITOR
 You type
 -----------------------------
/                               =======>    that's the EDITOR prompt
/:help HELLO            =======>    Directly to HELLO SYNTAX
/:help HELLO PARMS      =======>    Directly to HELLO PARAMETERS
/:help HELLO OPERATION  =======>    Directly to HELLO OPERATION
/:help HELLO EXAMPLE    =======>    Directly to HELLO EXAMPLE

Watch out!  These take you directly to the entry you want -- and right
            back out again!  And they zip by very quickly.  Typing help
            HELLO PARMS takes you to the parameter definitions for HELLO
            and then rolls right through them.  Here's where  S
            (to freeze) and  Q (to unfreeze) are really useful.

Watch out!  When the entry has rolled by, HELP will immediately return
            you to the program you were working with (EDITOR in our
            example).  If you want to get into HELP and stay there, type
            HELP .  The HELP dictionary will appear and you can
            type the COMMANDNAME (and KEYWORD if you want) and stay in
            HELP until you type E to return to the EDITOR program.
