  WPS Sentence

  Moves the cursor a sentence at a time in the current direction.

  Steps:

     1.  To set the direction, you can press the WPS Advance key (KP0) for
         forward direction, or WPS Backup key (KP1) for reverse direction.

     2.  Press the WPS Sentence key (KP7 or GOLD-KP7).

  Usage notes:

  o  WPS Sentence always moves to the start of a sentence---in forward
     direction, to the start of the next sentence; in reverse direction, to
     the start of the previous sentence.

  o  Sentence boundaries are a period, question mark, or exclamation point.
     Periods in RUNOFF (DSR) commands (such as .B or .LE;) or in decimal
     numbers (such as 3.14) are treated as sentence boundaries.

  o  If there are no sentence boundaries in the current direction, EVE tells
     you it cannot find the end of a sentence and then moves to the top or
     bottom of the buffer.

  o  To delete a sentence, press the WPS Delete Beginning Sentence key
     (GOLD-CTRL/J, GOLD-LINEFEED, or GOLD-F13).

  o  With the WPS keypad, KP7 or GOLD-KP7 continues a case change as
     follows:

     1.  Press the WPS Lower Case key (GOLD-KP3) or WPS Upper Case
         key (KP3) to change the case of the current character.

     2.  Press KP7 or GOLD-KP7 to continue the case change to the
         start of the next sentence.
