Summary
Creating an Oversized Table
058060 Tandem Computers Incorporated 5–37
Summary In this section you learned how to edit a file that is both longer and wider
than what you can see on the screen at any given time. To edit a file such as
this, you scrolled the text vertically using
NEXT PAGE , PREV PAGE , ROLL UP ,
and ROLL DOWN . You scrolled the text horizontally using LEFTSCROLL,
RIGHTSCROLL, TAB, BACKTAB, and RETURN .
You transferred the rough-draft text from another file using the window
feature. You defined the specific text you wanted to move using the
DEFINEREGION and REGION commands. You learned two new ways to
create files and open windows.
You made some repetitive editing tasks easy to do by reassigning some of
your function keys, or by using *C or an OBEY file to give a series of
commands in one step. You learned three ways to reissue a command
without retyping: using a repeat count, the FC command, and the REPEAT
command. You used COPY and RETRIEVE and the REPLACE command
to do other repetitive tasks. The repetitive tasks you had TEDIT do for you
are:
Deleting a column from every line that appears on the screen
Inserting a blank column in every line that appears on the screen
Making the first letter of every other line uppercase
Putting parentheses around a word in every other line
Inserting repeating heads and horizontal rules
Inserting vertical rules
Finally, you saved the special function-key assignments and tab stops you
used for the table in a profile called TABLE so you can use them the next
time you create a table. You used both the RECONFIGURE OPTIONS and
the SETPROFILE commands to change your profile settings.
