EDIT is programmed to keep your EDIT file correct and to remember all
your editing, whenever possible. Annoyances that you will encounter when
editing with the screen editor include:
Pressing an invalid numbered function key while in EDIT VS. When
you press an invalid function key, the terminal beeps and EDIT does
not perform the operation triggered by that key.
Mistyping text while in EDIT VS. You can cancel any modifications you
made to text since you pressed the most recent function key by pressing
the
SF14
(RECOVER) function key. (See the description of SF14 in
Appendix C for details.)
Receiving communication errors that garble the text on the screen. You
recover from most communication errors by pressing the
SF14
(RECOVER) function key. If this action does not restore the text that
was on the screen prior to the communication error, press
BREAK
and
go to Procedure C. Occasionally, you might 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
the various procedures you can use to recover when editing in
EDIT VS.
