EDLIN COMMAND REFERENCE
In
addition to
the
editing
keys, EDLIN also supports many
pow-
erful commands
that
let
you
manipulate
an
entire file or several
lines
at
a time.
Command Format
And
Rules
Most EDLIN commands
follow
a
certain
format
and
conform to
certain
rules. Following is a brief review:
Except
for
End, Edit,
and
Quit, EDLIN commands
are
preceded and/or followed by parameters. The function of
parameters
is discussed later.
You
may enter EDLIN commands
in
uppercase or lower-
case, or a combination of characters.
Except
for
the
Edit
Line command, EDLIN commands
are
a single letter.
You
can
indicate line numbers relative to
the
current
line. A
minus
sign
(-)
indicates lines
that
precede the
current
line. A plus sign (+) indicates lines
that
follow
it.
For example: -
1
3,
+ 13L I
ENTER
I lists
the ten
lines
immediately preceding
the
current
line, the
current
line,
and
the
ten
lines immediately following
the
current
line.
You
can
enter multiple commands
in
the
same line with-
out
any
special
delimiting
characters.
The
exceptions
are:
when you use
the
Edit
Line command
for
a single
line
when you use
the
Search and Replace command
