VAXTPU SET(CROSS_WINDOW_BOUNDS) — VMS 5.2

 SET(CROSS_WINDOW_BOUNDS)

 Determines the effect of CURSOR_VERTICAL on the cursor.  When
 CROSS_WINDOW_BOUNDS is set to ON, the CURSOR_VERTICAL built-in may cause
 the cursor to pass over window boundaries on the screen.  When
 CROSS_WINDOW_BOUNDS is set to OFF, the CURSOR_VERTICAL built-in causes the
 cursor to move only within one window and to obey scrolling regions.

 Syntax

    SET (CROSS_WINDOW_BOUNDS, {OFF | ON})

 Parameters

    OFF        Causes the CURSOR_VERTICAL built-in to move the cursor only
               within one window.

    ON         Allows the CURSOR_VERTICAL built-in to move the cursor over
               window boundaries.

 Example

    SET (CROSS_WINDOW_BOUNDS, OFF);

 Prevents the CURSOR_VERTICAL built-in from moving the cursor out of the
 current window.  Instead, text in the window scrolls if the cursor moves
 into a scrolling region.
