EDIT Error Messages This appendix lists the EDIT error messages in alphabetical order. A brief
explanation of the message and a reference to helpful information
accompanies each error message.
Most of the EDIT program error messages you will receive tell you that you
incorrectly entered an editor command. You will find that some of these
error messages are clear and concise about what you did wrong, while
others are not. When you receive an error message that you do not
understand, don’t panic if it is not explained here. Turn to the description of
EDIT command that produced the error message, compare what you
entered with the examples of that command, then try the command again.
filename FILE HAS EXCEEDED AVAILABLE DISC SPACE
There is not enough space on this file’s disk volume to allocate the extents
for the file. Report this error message to your system operator. To save the
editing you’ve done in your file, use the PUT command to put the text in
the file into a new file on another volume.
filename IS NOT AN EDIT TYPE FILE
You invoked the EDIT program on a file that does not have a 101 (EDIT) or
102 (TTEXT) file code. You can use the GET command to create an EDIT file
from an unstructured file with fixed-length records. See the GET command
description in Section 4 for help.
file1 IS NOT A VALID EDIT FILE
You attempted to insert text from file1 into file2 . However, something
is wrong with file1 . To solve this problem, type:
*GET file1 PUT newfile1
