8.0;wme (window_move_echo) *DM*, revision 8.0, 84/03/11
WME (WINDOW_MOVE_ECHO) -- Move a window across the screen using rubberbanding.
usage:  wme


FORMAT

  WME


  The  WME  command  moves  a  window  across the screen using the rubberbanding
  feature.  To move a window, place the cursor in the window you  want  to  move
  and issue the WME command.  (By default, the <MOVE> key invokes the WM command
  on the low-profile keyboard while CTRL/W provides the same function on the 880
  keyboard.)    After  you issue the WME command an outline or "rubberband" will
  appear to show you where the  window  will  be  when  you  complete  the  move
  operation.  Now  move the cursor until the rubberband is at the desired window
  position.  Finally, issue the DR; ECHO command or press <MARK> to complete the
  grow operation. You can use the SQ command (CTRL/X) to abort a move  operation
  using rubberbanding.

  The WME command requires no arguments or options.
