EDIT VS Function Key Summary

Page Mode Editing

058061 Tandem Computers Incorporated

C–21

EDIT VS does not join lines with a backslash character ( ) in column 1.

F11 (MARK PAGE OR

RETURN)

The F11 function key has two functions: It marks a page for the SF10 and
SF11 (GO TO) function keys, or it returns you to a previously displayed
page.

To mark a page, press

F11

(MARK PAGE) then immediately press

SF10

(GO TO 1) or

SF11

(GO TO 2). The pressing of these two keys marks

the current screen page. Once you mark a page, you can go to that page
at any time simply by pressing the

SF10

(GO TO 1) or

SF11

(GO TO 2)

function key. When you exit EDIT VS, EDIT VS unmarks any marked
pages.

When you mark a page, EDIT VS writes the line number of the top line
of the page on the GOTO-1 line or the GOTO-2 line of the VS Menu.
You can display this menu (press

F13

) and see this line number. You

can change this line number. See the F13 function key for details.

To return to a previously displayed page, press

F11

(MARK PAGE)

twice. EDIT VS returns to the page that was displayed on the screen just
before the most recent

SF1

(FIRST PAGE),

SF2

(LAST PAGE),

SF10

(GO TO 1),

SF11

(GO TO 2), or

F13

(MENU) to set a line number. The

return process only works after you give one of those five commands.

F12 (FIND STRING)

The F12 function key finds a string when used in conjunction with the

F13

(MENU) function key. To use F12, follow these steps:

1.

The text on your terminal screen is your current screen.

2.

Press

F13

(MENU) to display the menu screen. Then move the cursor

to the menu line that reads:

[W][B]"

string" <-

Type in the string that you want to find, enclosing it in quotes and
placing it to the right of the arrow. (See the F13 function key for details.)

3.

After you enter the string into the menu, exit the menu by pressing
ANY function key. EDIT VS returns you to your current screen.
