Xy3+ also goes to TOF to perform a SAve, and then JuMPs
back to the original cursor position, doing a total refresh (recalculating
formatting and everything). So the difference is ... what? Precisely
nothing.

I just loaded a 150-character-wide columnar doc into an 80 char textmode
screen, put it in func WG, and did thirty SEarches. I don't get any toggle
into formatted mode.
