Appendix B
EDIT Error Recovery
Procedure
058061 Tandem Computers Incorporated B–1
Error Recovery EDIT is programmed to keep your EDIT file correct and to remember all
your editing, whenever possible. Annoyances that you will encounter when
editing include:
Mistyping editor commands. When you misspell an editor command or
type an incorrect command syntax, EDIT displays an error message that
tells you what you did wrong. Simply retype the command.
(Appendix A lists the EDIT error messages.)
Mistyping text when using the EDIT program. When using the EDIT
program, you cannot cancel modifications you make to the text in the
file. You must manually fix any mistakes you make.
Occasionally, you may need to deal with a problem that requires you to
follow a specific recovery procedure in order to save your editing. The
remainder of this appendix describes that procedure.
