WHAT_LINE

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

  WHAT LINE

  Shows the current line number, total number of lines in the buffer, and
  percentage of that position in the buffer.

  Example:

     The following example shows the output from WHAT LINE, which is
     displayed in the message window at the bottom of the EVE screen:

        Command: WHAT LINE
        You are on line 35 out of 45 (78%).

  Usage notes:

  o  WHAT LINE is useful if you want to know whether to insert a page break
     or simply to find out how many lines are in the buffer.

  o  To go to a particular line by number, use the LINE command. For
     example, the command LINE 10 moves the cursor to the start of line 10
     in the current buffer.
