will be used for the following window. Select none to three of these
options, separated by spaces:
1. EXTENDED-SEARCH allows an extended search pattern containing
wild cards (special characters that represent or match one or more
characters).
2. IGNORE-CASE disregards uppercase or lowercase during the search,
so “This” matches “THIS” or “this.”
3. WORD-DELIMITED limits the search to whole words (defined by word
stops) or the boundaries of the column range.
Section Marker This marker signals the start of a section. The marker must begin in
column 1 and can be up to 47 characters. INSERT SECTION puts this
marker on a line by itself. The default is \NEW. (See Section 2 for a
definition of a section.)
Sentence Stops These are characters, when followed by one or more blanks, that define the
end of a sentence. The defaults are:
! . ?
Sentence stops define the limit for the text item SENTENCE. TEDIT uses
these settings for commands that take action on the text item SENTENCE.
Note The beginning and ending quotes that you see in the profile screen are not part of the
sentence stops.
Tab Stops These settings, in the range of 2 through 238, are for column stops used by
the TAB and BACKTAB commands. You can set up to 20 stops, which
must be in increasing order. The default stops are at columns 9, 17, 25, 33,
41, 49, 57, 65, 73, 81.
