File Operation
The word processor stores each document in a separate “file” on a diskette and under
an individual “file name” of up to eight characters that you choose when you store the
document for the first time.
You are allowed to save your document at any moment during editing. Once your
document is saved, you can start working with another document, or switch the word
processor off. The next time you switch the word processor on, you can retrieve your
document to complete editing. You may also decide to print a document that has been
completed and previously saved, or the document you are working on.
This word processor also includes several File Utility functions such as file copy,
delete, and rename that allow for easy maintenance of your text files.

To view the list of your WP files on a particular diskette, switch from the WRITE/EDIT
screen to the WP INDEX screen, insert that diskette, and press FILE.
The word processor assumes that you might wish to save the data that is currently
displayed on the WRITE/EDIT screen.
The WP INDEX screen lists all the WP files on the current diskette. Example; *
«WF INDEX» REMAIN: XXXXXK
TEXTl .WPT (XXX3 TEXT2 .WPT (XX.X)
TEXTS .WPT (XX.:JQ TEXT4 .WPT (XXX) TEXTS .WPT (XXX)
TEXTS .WPT (XX.X) TEXT? .WPT (XXX) TEXTS .WPT (XXX)
*NEWFILE is not a file stored on the diskette. This is an empty file that allows you to
start from scratch.
The name of files actually stored on the diskette is followed with a file name extension
that is automatically added by the word processor when you save a file. The
extension for WP files is
This extension allows the word processor to
distinguish between the WP files and other files that may be stored on the diskette.
The numbers displayed in parentheses at the right of the file names indicate the size
of the files (in kilobytes).
The number following tho indicator REMAIN shows the remaining space on the
diskette.
