You won't believe this, but back on 10/Nov/90 (was a Sat BTW) at
about 13:16, Marc Green said this to All:

     Word Perfect does not confine your work area to the column width 
of your screen.  Depending on your margin settings and font usage, WP 
can and often does extend beyond the right boundry of the screen.  
What will happen is if you type or move the cursor to text beyond 
what is visible, the entire window will shift.  To quickly switch 
between the left margin and right margin, use the HOME and END keys.  
It may seem unnatural at first, but play around with it and it will 
become more manageable.
