Starting TEDIT

Before you begin, be sure the following conditions are met:

1.

You are logged on to your terminal.

2.

You have a template that tells you what each of the function keys on your
terminal does. Tandem makes a template that fits your terminal.
Check with your TEDIT contact to make sure you get a template that
identifies the function keys you are using. A template for a Tandem
6530 terminal fits across the top of the keyboard; it identifies the
functions associated with each of the keys labeled

F1

through

F16

.

3.

You must be using the default profile. If you have never used TEDIT
before, you automatically get the default profile when you start TEDIT.
If you are not using the original, system default profile, some of the
examples in this manual will look different from what you see on your
screen.

Now, let’s get started.

To start TEDIT and create a new file named MEMO at the same time, type
TEDIT followed by the file name at the command interpreter prompt. Then
press

RETURN

if you are using a Tandem terminal. Press

ENTER

if you are

using a IBM 3270 terminal. See the following example.

1> TEDIT MEMO

TACL command

interpreter prompt

Type the name of the

editing program.

The cursor is here.

Type the name of

the new file.

Press RETURN or

ENTER .

Note

A file name contains up to eight characters that must be either letters or numbers. The first
character must be a letter.
