RESET

 *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

  RESET

  Cancels a selection or other operation, and sets the direction to FORWARD.

  Key:   EVE Default       EDT/WPS Keypad            Motif func key
         ----------------------------------------------------------
         GOLD-SELECT       GOLD-PERIOD on keypad     CTRL/\

  Usage notes:

  o  RESET cancels any of the following:

     *  Highlighting of a range or box with SELECT, BOX SELECT,
        FIND, or WILDCARD FIND (see help on Ranges And Boxes)

     *  A press of the GOLD key alone, or a GOLD-number sequence
        for a repeat count (with the EDT or WPS keypad)

     *  An incomplete or recalled command line, or $CHOICES$ buffer display

     *  Display from SHOW, SHOW DEFAULTS BUFFER, SHOW SUMMARY, or
        SHOW WILDCARDS---and returns to the buffer you were editing

  o  You can also cancel a selection by simply repeating SELECT, and you can
     cancel the highlighting of found text by moving the cursor out of the
     found range.

  o  RESET does not reset the terminal or redraw the screen. Instead, use
     the REFRESH command (CTRL/W) to redraw the screen.

  o  GOLD-SELECT is a "sleeper" key---it is defined by default, but the
     definition must be activated by setting a GOLD key or by setting the
     EDT or WPS keypad. See help on Gold Keys.
