Tips
TEDIT searches for a search-text that contains more than one word on a
single line; therefore, if the search-text is broken across two lines,
REPLACE will not find the search-text and will not replace this
occurrence of the search-text.
When replace-text of the REPLACE command causes a line to become
wider than the align width, auto word wrap (if set to ON in the
RECONFIGURE OPTIONS) is performed on that line. This could cause
other occurrences of the search-text in the same line to be broken. You
simply turn auto word wrap OFF to avoid lines being broken.
After you enter the REPLACE command and see the response lines,
you can press the HELP key once to see a short help text and twice to
see the complete help text.
TEDIT does not recognize lines added to your file after specifying a line
range of F/L (first through last) or ALL in the REPLACE command;
therefore, the additional lines are not included in the replacement
operation.
