  Syntax:  ERASE NEXT WORD

  Erases the word following the cursor.

  When the cursor is positioned on a space, this command erases all the
  spaces before and after the deleted word except one space.  If the
  cursor is at the end of a line, the next line is appended to the
  current line.  If the cursor is on a word, that word is erased.  For
  more information about the definition of a word, see the ERASE WORD
  command.
