Using the Editor Using Text Editors
How to Name Files
When you create a new file you must name it before you can save it.
Filenames can be up to 8 characters long, plus an extension (the characters that follow the
period) of up to three characters: filename.ext. For restrictions on the characters that can be
used in filenames, refer to
“CFN3 File System” on page 17-1 .
To name a file:
• Ensure that you are in command mode. If you are not in command mode, type ^C to get
into command mode.
• Type the command NAME filename after the command mode prompt (#).
• The file name will appear on the status line at the top of the screen.
Note: Naming a file does not automatically also save it. You must subsequently use the SAVE
command too.
How to Save New Files
Use the SAVE command to save a file when it is initially created. Once the file has been saved
for the first time, use the RESAVE command to resave the file. You must name the file with
the NAME command before you can save it with SAVE.
To save a new file, proceed as follows:
1 Ensure that you are in command mode.
If you are not in command mode, type ^C to get into command mode.
Ensure that you have named the file with the name command.
2 Type save. The file name is not required.
If the file has not been named, the editor displays the message Use name command to name
file first.
How to Resave Files
Use the RESAVE command to resave files that have already been saved with SAVE. To resave
a file, proceed as follows:
1 Ensure that you are in command mode.
If you are not in command mode, type ^C to get into command mode.
2 Type resave. The file name is not required.
How to Exit the Editor
The q command exits the editor and returns to the operating system.
To exit the Editor, proceed as follows:
1 Ensure that you are in command mode.
If you are not in command mode, type ^C to get into command mode.
