Introduction to EDIT

For example, assume you have a file in your default subvolume called
MYPOEM. You type the command:
*GET MPOEM 1/10 TO 40;LIST ALL
and EDIT returns the error message:
??:011
FILE $SYSTEM.USER.MPOEM CANNOT BE OPENED
because you don’t have a file named MPOEM.
Type FC to tell EDIT to display the most recent command line for editing:
*FC
(COMMAND) GET MPOEM 1/10 TO 40;LIST ALL
..........
The R, I, and D subcommands of FC work exactly the same when you’re
editing a command line as they do when you’re editing a text line. For
example:
(COMMAND) GET MPOEM 1/10 TO 40;LIST ALL
.......... iy
(COMMAND) GET MYPOEM 1/10 TO 40;LIST ALL
.......... RETURN
Pressing RETURN when you’ve finished editing causes EDIT to execute the
corrected command.
Note EDIT does not execute the command line after FC if you type two right slants (//) in columns
1 and 2 after the FIX prompt (the 10 periods) and press
RETURN
