Was hoping for some kind of trick to automatically echo the parsed/formatted line back to the screen like the cheaper computers do.

Just pressing [^] should do it, no need to then press [v]. One key should do it, even faster than a KA.

Nop,
if you are at the first line of the program → [^] will show you that line.
if you are at the last line of the program → [v] will show you that line.
anywhere else in the program → [v] [^] or [^] [v] or [f][B][ENTER] will show you the current line.
Even though it uses 1 more key, I would presume that [f][B][ENTER] will execute faster.
