edit

This command opens a text file in the AlliedWare Plus

text editor. Once opened you can

use the editor to alter to the file.

If a filename is specified and it already exists, then the editor opens it in the text editor.

If no filename is specified, the editor prompts you for one when you exit it.

Before starting the editor make sure your terminal, terminal emulation program, or Telnet
client is 100% compatible with a VT100 terminal. The editor uses VT100 control sequences
to display text on the terminal.

For more information about using the editor, including control sequences, see

editor” on page 6.7
