WINDOW as a Text Item A text item is all text starting at the cursor’s location to the end of the line
just above the status line, including text in columns 1 through 239. All the
text in a line is not always visible on the screen, but it is part of the
WINDOW text item. For example, Figure 2-13 shows all WINDOW text
visible; Figure 2-14 shows a WINDOW text that is not entirely visible on
your terminal screen.

Welcome to TEDIT, the PS Text Editor
TEDIT is a versatile and powerful text editor that lets you use
both the function keys of your terminal and a special response
line (the command line) for giving editing commands.
Before Using TEDIT
--Place the template that has the function key assignments over
or near the function keys on your terminal.
--Locate the PREVPAGE and NEXTPAGE function keys. Press these
keys to move back and forth through this NEWUSER text.
--Locate the EXIT function key. You can press EXIT to leave
NEWUSER and then press EXIT again to leave TEDIT.
--Locate the *C function key. Press this key to enter and give
commands you cannot select with a function key.
How to Use TEDIT
To ADD TEXT: Type your text and press the RETURN key to go to the
next line.
To CHANGE TEXT: Press the appropriate function keys. Some
commands like TAB, RULER, and UNDO require one key. Other
commands, called text commands, require a second key to name the
applicable text item. For example, MOVE LINE and FORWARD
PARAGRAPH each contain a text command followed by a text item.
Text items like WORD or PARAGRAPH represent a character or group
of characters.

NOTE: When you use a text item with a text command, always have
the cursor within the text item you want to change.
If you want to enter commands not on function keys, press *C,
type the command name, and press *C again.
