Using Line and Column Numbers

Working With Larger Files

6–12

058060 Tandem Computers Incorporated

Follow these steps to locate a specific line and column in the right-hand
portion of the table, which is not currently in view:

1.

Page forward in your file until the table is in view. Put the cursor in
one of rows containing the BUDGET or ACTUAL heading. Knowing
where you set the tabs for the table (in Section 5), pick the tab stop for
the MISCELLANEOUS column—the number is 91.

2.

Press *C. When the response line appears, type DISPLAYLINE. Press
*C again.

3.

When the DISPLAYLINE response lines appear, fill them in as shown
in the following example.

Display line: * column: 91

Type * to display the line

the cursor is in (or you

can type a line number).

4.

TEDIT positions the cursor in column 91 of the line containing the
cursor.

To go back to column 1, you can give the DISPLAYLINE command again,
specifying column 1. To give this same command entirely from the *C
response line, press *C. When the response line appears, type the following
command:

Command: DISPLAYLINE *,1

Separate the line number

and the column number

with a comma.

Renumbering Lines

If you use the line numbers a lot, you probably want to renumber them
from time to time so that 1) you do not have too many decimal numbers
and 2) the lines are all numbered sequentially with no gaps or decimals in
the numbering. To renumber the lines, follow these steps:

1.

Press *C. When the response line appears, type RENUMBER (or REN).
Press *C again.
