Factor/Friction Example

     If you hold down the right arrow key with the settings:
 
          Right   :RIGHT
          Fastfunc:Right
          Friction:1000
          Factor  :%75 7
 
     PWB moves the cursor at the current speed until it has moved 7
     characters to the right. Then PWB changes the friction to 250 (75
     percent reduction of the initial friction of 1000). When the
     cursor has moved 14 characters, the friction changes to 188 (75
     percent reduction of the friction of 250). The cursor moves faster
     the longer you hold down the right arrow key.
