Edit Document Text - Help.
:P.
Use this screen to enter & amend the document displayed. All the screen between
the header and command key footer is available for entering text. There is a
limited word wrap facility, and lines can be split over two lines, to allow more
text to be added, and individual lines can be copied, deleted, inserted, moved
or overlaid. In addition, display attributes (such as highlight, reverse image &
underline) can be added to improve the appearance of your document. If you want
more than one page, just use the page keys to add extra pages (max 555 pages).
:P.
If you are using a PC, you can use the 'Cut & Paste' facility to drop documents
prepared on your machine onto this display (18 lines at a time), and then add
any attributes to finish it off.

:HELP NAME=FKEY10.
:PARML.
:PT.F10=Attributes
:PD.
Add display attributes to enhance the appearance of your document. This is
achieved by using special Start & End characters to show the location for
the display attributes. The default values are "{" to mark the start of the
string, and "}" to mark the end. (These can be changed on the attributes
screen if required, (by overtyping the "{" and "}" on the F10 window) to any
other you choose, but only for the document you are currently working on).
Insert the special characters either side of the text you wish to change, and
press F10. You will see a menu of possible attributes from which one choice
can be made. Just type the number of your choice, and the document will be
updated with your selection. To remove the attributes, just overtype the spaces
either side of the enhanced text. To add more than one type of attribute to a
line will require this process to be repeated, once for each string of text.
Note that some attributes will appear different on a standard terminal - Colours
other than green, white & yellow on a PC screen/colour screen will blink on a
standard monochrome terminal.

:HELP NAME=FKEY11.
:PARML.
:PT.F11=Word wrap
:PD.
Adjusts the selected lines by truncating the gaps at the end of each line. If
a word 'spills over' onto the next line, the entire word will be moved onto
that next line. If there are no spaces between the last part of a string on one
line, and the end of that string on the next, then word wrap will assume they
are one continuous string (or word), and will join them up.
To perform word wrapping, press F11 with the cursor on the first (or last) line
of the paragraph then move the cursor to the other end of the paragraph and
press F11 again. It does not matter in which order you select the start and end
of the paragraph. This makes it easy to wrap a paragraph you have just typed, by
pressing F11 on the line you've finished typing on, then press F11 on the first
line of the paragraph.
:LINES.
Before:                                         End of line  ==>
A sample paragraph to show the ability to use limited word wrapp
ing to enhance appearance

is displayed here.

After:                                          End of line  ==>

wrapping to enhance appearance and readability is displayed

:ELINES.
:P.
Note that gaps elsewhere in the line will still remain, unless after wrapping
they are placed at the end, in which case repeating the process will remove
them.
