UNMARKPOSITION
TEDIT Commands
058059 Tandem Computers Incorporated 3–201
Following this response line, you will also see a list of your existing position
numbers if you have positions marked in your file. This list includes the
position number, line number, and the text in the line. For example:
Position Number:
1 20. \set box on
* 2 29. number with this response line:
5 313. \set box on
8 400.01 all others. For example:
Position number
Line number in the file
Text in the line
Note The asterisk (*) indicates the most recently referenced position.
What Happens
Using ALL in position-number deletes all marked positions in your file.
If you use *+1 for the position number, TEDIT takes the current position
number (the number where the asterisk is positioned) and adds one. TEDIT
then deletes that position number. The * moves to the next (highest)
position number, and it becomes the most recently referenced position.
