THIS FILE'S FILECODE IS NOT SOURCE TYPE

You attempted to retrieve text from a file that is not an EDIT file (a file with
a 101 file code). You can retrieve text from non-EDIT format files but only
by using the PUT keyword with the GET command. See the GET command
description in Section 4 for help.

THIS LINE CANNOT BE BROKEN UP SHORT ENOUGH

During a JOIN operation, EDIT encountered a line that did not have a blank
character between column one and the specified join width. Consequently,
the JOIN command, which breaks and joins lines only at blank characters,
did not shorten the line.

THIS RANGE IS TOO COMPLEX FOR ME TO HANDLE

You specified a range-specifier parameter with more than six RANGE
keywords or you specified a range expression that was larger than the EDIT
program expected a range to be. See the range-specifier parameter
description in Section 5 for help.

TOO MANY ASSOCIATIVE CONDITIONS WERE SPECIFIED

See “THIS RANGE IS TOO COMPLEX FOR ME TO HANDLE,” above.

TOO MANY TAB STOPS

You used the SET TABS command to set more than 20 tab stops. See the
SET command description in Section 4 for help.
