EDIT VS Template

Tandem makes a function key template that fits your terminal and defines
each numbered function key for the EDIT VS program. If you do not have a
template for your terminal, see your manager and get one. The template
makes it possible for you to use the screen editor without memorizing the
edit function linked to each function key.

Figure 8 simulates the terminal template by displaying all of the numbered
function keys with a brief description of each key. Take a look at Figure 8.
Notice it has two rows of definitions because you can use each function key
alone or with

SHIFT

. This allows each key to issue two basic commands.

The top row defines the edit functions performed by the function keys
when you press one as a shifted key. This means that you press

SHIFT

and hold it down while you press the function key once. In this manual,
when you need to press a shifted function key, you’ll see “press
SF

number

” (for example, “press SF12”), and each key name is boxed.

The bottom row defines the edit functions performed by the function
keys when you press them once. In this manual, when you need to
press a function key, you’ll see “press F

number

” (for example, “press

F8”), and each key name is boxed.

Certain keys issue additional commands in the Super Shift mode. See
the

SF15

(SET SS) function key for details.
