5.

Mark the line as position 3 by pressing *C and typing MARKPOSITION
3. Press *C again. The position is now marked.

Command: MARKPOSITION 3

6.

Now that you have the positions marked, you can move quickly
between positions with the GOTOPOSITION command. Simply type
GOTOPOSITION followed by the position number on the *C response
line each time you want to move.

If you forget the number you assigned to a position or what line the
position you marked is in, you can type the command GOTOPOSITION by
itself (not followed by a number) on the *C response line. See the example.

Command: GOTOPOSITION

TEDIT displays a list of all the positions you have marked. The list includes
the line number and some text, which helps you recognize the place you
marked. See the next example.

Position Number:
1 11 Riveira and precede Yuen. See the attached agenda.
2 40 10:00 Break
3 23 Medici and Kitahara before presenting them at the meeting.

Another way you can use MARKPOSITION and GOTOPOSITION is to
locate either end of a large block of text that you want to delete, move, or
manipulate in some way. You can define the text between the two markers
as a REGION; then you can use text commands on that region.
