When you edit a program, all changes and additions that you make are
saved immediately in the control’s memory. No formal “save” command is
executed.
You cannot quit, abandon or abort an edit session and restore the original
version of the program you have been editing. For that reason, we
recommend that you copy the program prior to editing.
To exit the edit mode from the edit menu, press the {EXIT EDITOR}
softkey.

} softkey to leave a program being
edited. The {EXIT EDITOR} softkey must be used to exit the program.
Exiting using the Exit {

} softkey (shown on the CRT as a up arrow) will
cause the program editor to remain open for that program. This results in
not allowing any other program to be selected for editing.
