Searching And Replacing Text

This can produce unexpected results in REPLACE mode. For example, if you replace “hat”

with “cap”, you may end up with “ccapt”, “ccapter", and so on.

To avoid this problem, if the search string is a whole word or string of words, put a space

at the beginning and end, e.g. “_hat_“.

Now the search function will only find the word “hat". It will not find “chat” or “chatter”

because the string “hat” within these words does not have a space before and after it.

Hyphen Scan

Problems can arise with the word wrap function if the distance between the margins is

small, or when typing in languages such as German, which can have very long words. Since

the word wrap function automatically transfers any word that exceeds the right margin

onto the next line, excessively long blank spaces may appear, resulting in a poor layout

The hyphen scan function automatically detects an space that is wider than the hot zone,

and gives you the option of splitting long words between two lines.

The hyphen scan function means that when you first type your text, you do not have to

worry about hyphenating words to make the layout look good, apart from any permanent

hyphens that may be required. You can use the hyphen scan later to tidy up the layout

To use the hyphen scan;

1. Position the cursor at the beginning of the section that you wish to scan. If you wish

to scan the whole document, position the cursor at the start of the document

2, Call up the SEARCH menu as before, then press the [3] key to select H SCAN,

The hyphen scan function will search through the text until it finds a blank space widerthan

the current width of the hot zone,

While it is searching, the following message is displayed;
