Transferring Text to

the New File

You learned how to copy text from one file to another in Section 4. You can
use that same method here to bring text from the AGENDA file you created
in Section 3 to a new file called TABLE, which you work on in this section.
In this section you learn some shortcuts to create files and to open
windows.

Creating the File

At the command interpreter prompt, type TEDIT followed by the file name,
TABLE, and an exclamation mark (!). The ! mark causes TEDIT to create the
file without asking you whether you want to create it. Here is an example:

5> TEDIT TABLE!

Note

Make sure you know what volume and subvolume you are in before you create a file using
the exclamation mark (!). You can check your volume and subvolume by giving the WHO
command at the TACL or command interpreter prompt.

Three Ways to Open a

Second Window

As soon as TEDIT creates the TABLE file, you can open a window into the
AGENDA file, which you created in Section 3. You can use the
OPENWINDOW command in several ways. First, the way you learned it in
Section 4:

1.

Press *C. Type OPENWINDOW on the response line. Press *C again.

Command: OPENWINDOW
