Unit of measurement. An entry required by some TFORM commands that
defines how a value is measured—for example, lines, inches, characters,
picas, or points.
Unshifted function. The function TEDIT performs when you press a function
key without pressing the SHIFT key.
Value. A numerical entry required by some TFORM commands.
Variable. A quantity whose value changes. For example, SYS_DATE and
SYS_TIME are variables that always contain the current date and time. In
TFORM form letters, variables contain the information that changes in each
letter.
Volume. Part of the designation that identifies where you store a document.
The volume (like a file cabinet) holds subvolumes (like file drawers) which
contain files (like individual folders).
White space. An area in your document that contains no text.
Widow. The last line of a paragraph isolated at the beginning of a new
printed page by a page break.
Wild card. A character in TEDIT that can represent or match more than one
character. You can use wild cards in patterns to search for specific text
patterns; for example, all the words that end with “ing.”
Window. A view of a file; you can have one or two windows open at a given
time. With two open windows, you can see two views of one file or see
views of two different files. The TEDIT text item WINDOW is the area
between the cursor position and the bottom of the screen.
Wrap. The movement of the cursor from one line to the next (or previous)
line as it continues in the same direction it was traveling when it reached
the edge of the screen. See also Auto word wrap.
Written commands. Commands that you type on the *C response line as
opposed to those that are assigned to function keys and which TEDIT
performs when you simply press the key.
