FIX Command
EDIT Command Summary
058061 Tandem Computers Incorporated 4–57
The R, I, and D subcommands work exactly the same when you’re editing a
command line as they do when you’re editing a text line. When you’re
through editing, EDIT re-executes the command line. For example:
(COMMAND GET MYPOM 1/10 TO LAST;LIST LAST-10/LAST
.......... ie
(COMMAND) GET MYPOEM 1/10 TO LAST;LIST LAST-10/LAST
.......... RETURN
LAST NEW LINE IS 1457 <- 10
CURRENT FILE IS $SYSTEM.USER.OLDPOEM
1454 Little Boy Blue,
1455 Come blow your horn!
1456 The sheep's in the meadow,
1457 The cow's in the corn.
1458 Where's the boy
1459 That looks after the sheep?
1460 He's under the haystack,
1461 Fast asleep.
1462 Will you wake him? No, not I;
1463 For if I do, he'll be sure to cry.

and 2 after the FIX COMMAND prompt
If you press BREAK (or equivalent)
If you type CTRL-Y (press CTRL and Y at the same time)
