A2osX Edit Help
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The edit command allows the user to interactively read and edit standard text
|
||
|
|
files in A2osX. If you do not specify a file name on the command line, you
|
||
|
|
will be prompted to enter one when you save your work (control-S). Consult
|
||
|
|
the help screen below for a list of the special keys that can be used while
|
||
|
|
editing a file.
|

|
A note for the touch typists!: While edit is not a word processor, it still is
|
||
|
|
one of the most complex programs included in A2osX. It does a lot! A side
|
||
|
|
affect of this, and due to the lack of a keyboard buffer in the Apple //e, if
|
||
|
|
you try to speed type while using EDIT some keystrokes may be dropped. This
|
||
|
|
is most noticeable when using the AppleWin emulator set to 1.0 speed.
|
||
|
|
Changing the emulator speed to at least 2.0 will significantly reduce or
|
||
|
|
eliminate the dropped keys.
