R replacement-string
replaces characters in the command line (beginning with the character above the
R) with replacement-string. replacement-string is terminated by // or
Return.
I insertion-string
inserts insertion-string into the command line in front of the character above
the I. insertion-string is terminated by // or Return.
D
deletes the character above the D. Repeat to delete more characters.
FC Guidelines

If you do not use parameters, FC displays the last command line entered.

When you finish editing the line or have no changes to make, press RETURN to
execute the modified command.

Use the HISTORY command to obtain line numbers.

You must begin your correction explicitly with one of the subcommands if the first
character of the change is I, D, or R. Type the D or R under the character to be
deleted or replaced. Type the I under the character that follows the insert position.

If you enter a string without a preceding subcommand, R is assumed.

The subcommand begins its operation at the character positioned directly above it.
FC displays the modified line and prompts for another subcommand.

Specify more than one subcommand per line by separating the subcommands with
a double slash (//).

To abort the FC command and not execute the modified command, press the
BREAK key or the CTRL and Y keys—or enter a double slash (//) in columns 1 and
2 and immediately press RETURN.
FC Examples
