Alas, this is not what happens. With the cursor on a word listed in
SPELL.TMP and SPELL<HELPKEY> invoked, the message line below the command
line comes to display "CAll subject file in adjacent screen". The adjacent
file is in window number 1; SPELL.TMP is in window number 2 with the
questionable words, and questionable errata segregated below. (By the way,
how are these errata determined?) No CVA/W appears anywhere. ALT-F6 or
SHIFT-F6 to the adjacent window shows the original file, no messages, back
and forth to SPELL.TMP, nothing doing. As is almost always the case, I may
be making an error, or perhaps there is something in my setup that's
breaking the frame's action. And, as always, I appreciate your help.
