TEDIT function key.

A key on your terminal keyboard (usually labeled with a

number) that has a TEDIT command, text command, or text item assigned
to it. When you press the key, TEDIT performs the assigned function.

TEDPROFL.

The file that contains all of your TEDIT profiles; it is usually

stored in your default volume and subvolume.

Template.

A flexible strip that fits on the terminal keyboard and identifies

the functions assigned to the TEDIT function keys.

Template block.

The first block in a TFORM form letter list file that defines

the order of the variables.

Terminal function key.

A key on your terminal keyboard (usually labeled with

its function) that performs a specific function, as opposed to one that enters
a character or a number. The terminal function keys perform the same
functions whether you are entering text on the screen or on TEDIT response
lines. You cannot reassign functions to some of the terminal function keys
like you can to the TEDIT function keys.

Text command.

A word that tells TEDIT to perform a specific action on an

object called a text item. The text command must be used in combination
with a text item; for example, use the text command DELETE with the text
item WORD to tell TEDIT to delete a word.

Text formatter.

A program, such as TFORM, that formats text prior to

printing.

Text item.

A word that identifies a specific object on which you intend for

TEDIT to perform some action. The text item must be used in combination
with a text command; for example, use the text item WORD with the text
command DELETE to tell TEDIT to delete a word.

Title.

A TFORM entry, consisting of three fields, that contains text. You use

titles for headers, footers, and level 0 section headings; or you can place
them anywhere in your document by using the TITLE command.

Topic.

One of several subjects on which TEDIT provides information in the

online help, such as scratchpad or patterns.
