From the keyboard you can select a
suboption by:
•
Pressing the key on the keyboard that
matches the highlighted key on each
suboption. For example, to get the
SAVE suboption you would press <S>
on the keyboard.
•
Using the up or down arrow keys to
highlight different suboptions, then
press <Enter>.
Let's go through and explain each of the main
options and suboptions first. Highlight the EDIT
option.
7.3. THE EDIT MAIN MENU OPTION
Moving through and selecting the various
suboptions while in the EDIT main menu option
is the same as described in the FILE option. If
you try to select any of these options without
opening a new file you will get an
INFORMATION error message. These
functions only work when there is a *.DLD file
loaded in the editor. Let's go through and
explain each of the suboptions.
EDIT LINE - edits the highlighted line in the
editor.
DELETE LINE F3 - deletes the highlighted
line in the editor. You can also delete a
highlighted line by pressing <F3>.
INSERT LINE F4 -inserts a line in the
highlighted location. You can also insert a
line by pressing <F4>. If you try to insert a
line at a location that already contains text
the new line will be inserted above the old.
See Section 7.5 for more information.
STRING MENU - creates a security code to
lock callers out from changing flags or
ports. Allows the user to change the VS1
default words used to describe the input
location menu string, port menu string, and
flag menu string. See Section 8 in this
manual for more details.
INITATE CALL - associates particular flag
settings in the CR10 with phone numbers to
call in an initiate call situation. This
command is used in conjunction with
Instruction 97 used with the CR10. See
Section 8.4 in this manual for more details.
Again, don't select any of the suboptions. Now
highlight the HELP main menu option.
7.4. THE HELP MAIN MENU OPTION
Notice there is only one suboption. Go ahead
and select it by using the mouse or a keyboard.
A help window will appear in the middle of your
computer screen. Help windows can be called
up from anywhere in the Editor.

To erase the window using a mouse,
put the mouse cursor on the OK box or
on the small solid square in the upper
left corner of the help window and click
the left mouse button. This will put you
back to the FILE main menu option.

To erase the window press <Enter>,
<O>, or <Esc>.
7.5. EDITING EXAMPLE USING EXMPL1.DLD
Let's go through and analyze EXMPL1.DLD and
see how the initial messages were created. We
will also do some modifications.
Enter the Editor and get into the FILE main
menu option. Select NEW FILE. The CHOOSE
A FILE window should appear in the center of
your screen.
Notice the cursor is in the NAME: area. The
cursor is presently in the INSERT mode. You
can identify this by a large blinking cursor.
Press <Ins> and notice the cursor changes to a
line in size. The cursor is now in TYPEOVER
mode. Press <Ins> again to get the cursor back
in INSERT mode. The cursor is set to come up
in INSERT mode wherever you are allowed to
type in text.
Only files that end with .DLD can be edited by
the Editor. You can select files for editing a
number of different ways.

If you have a mouse, you can select a
file in the following ways:
•
If you need to change directories put
the mouse cursor either on

DIRECTORIES should be highlighted.
Put the mouse cursor on the correct
