SYNTAX : ARG @L
RESULTING ARGUMENT: None
FUNCTION : Move the current cursor position the specified number
of lines forward, attempting to stay in the same column.
If the new line is too short (and therefore does not
contain the required column, the cursor goes to the end
of that line.
ARGUMENT : The number of lines forward (backward if negative).
DEFAULT : 1
NOTE 1 : Short-hand arguments Z and -Z specify all lines up to
the end (or beginning) of the buffer, while still staying
in the right column if possible.
NOTE 2 : This command aims to emulate the behaviour of the cursor
keys UP and DOWN. Where the cursor keys differ, is that
they remember the required column over multiple
movements; this command has no such memory.
