Basic
Method

Use BASIC’s special function keys for editing lines. A description
of these keys and their functions follows.
If
the line to edit is
on
the screen, you can use the arrow keys to
move the cursor to the position at which you are going to make the
changes. If the line
is
not displayed, you can edit
it
by typing:
EDIT
line(-)
where
line
is the number of the line to edit. After you make the
changes, press
(ENTER)
to store them.
