As author and daily user of MEditor & it's "Parse for Context
Sensitive Help" function, I am a bit blinkered. I no longer care what
file a routine is defined in; I just cursor to it and press F1, key CR
and the file is opened and I'm looking at the routine. Equally I will
never care whether it is above or below me in the current source:
<Ctrl W> selects word, <Ctrl F3> finds first occurrence, F3 next,
until I find the routine, then Ctrl F3, F3.. until I'm back where I
started... Easy peasy blink
</shameless plug>

I can't believe anyone would think it easier to manually page back up
a source looking for a routine than use a search function...
