QUIET

NOQUIET

A number of commands (such as REPLACE and CHANGE) have a
QUIET keyword that suppresses the listing of altered lines. QUIET used
with the SET command suppresses the listing of altered or deleted lines
as the default for all the other editor commands that accept QUIET.
NOQUIET reenables the listing of altered or deleted lines in all the
other editor commands that accept QUIET. NOQUIET is the default.
(See Example 5, following.)

SHIFT

NOSHIFT

SHIFT tells EDIT to upshift all alphabetical lowercase characters to
uppercase characters. NOSHIFT tells EDIT to leave all alphabetical
characters in the case in which you type them. NOSHIFT is the default.
(See Example 1, following.)

TABS [

tabposition ] ...

NOTABS

TABS tells EDIT to simulate tabbing (by inserting blanks) when you
type a horizontal tab. NOTABS tells EDIT not to simulate tabbing.
NOTABS is the default.

When you use the EDIT program (when you are in line- editing mode),
a horizontal tab is a CTRL-I character, NOT the key. To type a CTRL-I,
press

CTRL

and hold it down while you press

I

.

Tabposition

is an EDIT-file column number from 1 to 255. You can

specify up to twenty tab positions. Separate each tab position with a
space.

If you specify TABS, EDIT processes horizontal tab characters even
though the NOCONTROL set option may be in effect. (See Example 3,
following.)
