156 MS-DOS User's Reference
[L)ist
List
Purpose:
lists
a range
of
lines, including
the
two lines specified.
Syntax:
[ line]( ,line
]L
Comments:
A capital
letter
L has
been
used
here
to
avoid confusion with the
number
one. A small letter I
would
work just as well.
Edlin
provides default values
if
you
do
not type
either
option.
If
you
do
not
type the first line option, as in
the
following com-
mand,
the
display will start n lines before
the
current
line and
end
with
the
specified line:
,line
L
The beginning comma is needed
to
show that you omitted
the
first line option.
Note
If
the
specified line is
more
than
11
lines before
the
current line,
the
display will
be
the
same as
if
you omitted
both
options.
Edlin
displays 23 lines, starting with
the
specified line,
if
you
omit the second option, as in
the
following command:
line L
If
you just type
L,
edlin
displays 23
lines-the
11
lines before
the
current
line,
the
current
line, and
the
11
lines after
the
current line.
If
there are less than
11
lines before
the
current
line,
edlin
displays more than
11
lines after
the
current
line,
up
to
a
total
of
23 lines.
