How to set an Alt + xx key to position the current line to the top or bottom

Hello to all,
There has been lots of talk about this product that has spilled over onto
the midrange list, and it has me once again attempting to give it a
shot. I
hate to think of myself as non adaptive and unable to embrace new
technologies, methods, etc. So hear goes again. Currently I'm only
coding
old school RPG type programs, so the following questions pertain to RSE.
And most of the following relates back to how I do things in PDM/SEU, only
because that's all I know at the moment. I attempted a fairly easy
modification to an existing program, and came up with the follow list of
things I found that I take for granted in SEU.

1. Is there a way to list libs, objects, members, etc in the Remote
Systems
view with descriptions?

2. Can I condition page ups and downs by cursor position? Or at least
jump
the cursor to the top or bottem of the displayed view, then I could roll
by
line up or down.

3. In SEU, when I hit <enter>, I know it has been saved, even if I loose
my
session. Do I have to continually save my work?

4. In SEU, when I hit enter, the editor will automatically position my
cursor to where I need to key additional data? I know tab moves me to the
next input position, but not whether it requires input. And by the time
auto syntax checking informs me, I have spent time reading the message,
relocating my cursor, etc.

5. Do I have to use the mouse to copy lines from one member to another?

6. How can I copy field names in to the member? I added a table to the
Table View, I can see all my fields, but can't copy and paste from there.

7. After compiling, getting errors, and fixing them, and recompiling
successfully, the error messages are still showing in the edit view. How
can I get rid of them with out closing the member?

Believe it or not, I had a lot more questions, but figured many of them
out.
Which brings up my last question (for now:). How do you work through
learning the functionality of this application? Currently I'm just
stumbling through the basics, and I know I'm not doing many things the
most
productive way.

Thanks for all you help, Tim
