FIX Command
EDIT Command Summary
4–46 058061 Tandem Computers Incorporated
EDIT prints the new text line and again waits for you to edit it:
Jack be nimble, Jack be quite
ck
EDIT continues to print the new text line until you press RETURN alone
on a line:
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
RETURN
Then EDIT prints the next text line in the range.
The FIX command has three subcommands that you can use when
editing a text line. They are:
D or d (for delete) deletes the character in the text line that is above
the D subcommand on the editing line. See Example 1, following.
I or i (for insert) followed by an insertion string inserts the string
following the I subcommand on the editing line into the text line.
Insertion begins at the character that precedes the character above
the I subcommand. See Example 2, following.
R or r (for replace) followed by a replacement string replaces
characters in the text line with the characters in the replacement
string on the editing line on a one-for-one basis. Replacement
begins with the character above the R subcommand. See Example 3,
following.
EDIT treats as replacement strings any strings on the editing line that
do not begin with the subcommand R, I, or D. Characters in
replacement strings replace the characters in the text line on a one-for-
one basis. See Example 4, following.
