Entering EDIT VS to
Edit an Existing File
Until you purge an EDIT file from the computer system, you can edit the
file. To enter EDIT VS from the EDIT program to edit the file named
AESOP, type:
1 EDIT AESOP
TEXT EDITOR - T9601B30 - (08MAR87)
CURRENT FILE IS $WORK.FICTION.AESOP
*XEQ VS
The first command, typed here at the command interpreter, starts the EDIT
program on the file named AESOP. The second command, typed at the
EDIT prompt, starts the EDIT VS program and by default puts the last line
in the file at the top of the screen. (You can, however, start EDIT VS with
any line at the top of the screen. See the description of the XEQ command
later in this appendix.)
