Modifying the CVIM Menus

When you pick the

Ret

key, one of two results can occur:

(1) No dictionary entry is found to contain the text you entered; the

Status:

box returns the message

Sub–text Not Found.

If this

happens, try entering a different string.
(2) A dictionary entry containing the search text is found; the text of
that dictionary entry appears in the

New Text:

field now located over

the keyboard. The dictionary ID number of the entry is listed in the

Status:

field of the keyboard display (it is suggested that you record

this ID number; you can use it later to quickly access the specific
dictionary entry again, in case you want to edit it again).

The dictionary entry that is found may not be the specific entry you want
to change. In this case, pick the

Find Next:

box to locate the next

dictionary entry containing the search text. Repeatedly pick the

Find

Next:

box until the desired entry is located.

When the desired entry is listed

in the New Text:

field, edit the entry as

necessary (see “Editing Text” later in this chapter).

Here are some additional considerations when searching for text strings:

Case–Sensitivity: The search text is not case–sensitive.

Reenabling Find Next: The

Find Next:

box is disabled after a

dictionary entry is modified. To use the same search string again after
modifying an entry, you must reenter the search string, and pick

Ret

.

Dictionary ID Search

To use the

Dictionary ID

method for accessing an entry to modify, follow

this general procedure:

First, pick the

Dictionary ID

box on the

Search Method

menu to access

the ID entry keyboard. The keyboard’s display area includes two fields,

Dictionary ID:

and

Status:

Enter the dictionary ID number of the entry you want to edit. Your entry
appears in the

Dictionary ID:

field in the keyboard display.
