Saving a File
Once editing is completed, to save changes, position the cursor on the sill of the edit-
mode window, type S or SAVE, and press Return. The changes are then saved,
replacing the original file.
During edit mode, the only commands accepted on the sill of a window are the SAVE
or ESCAPE statements. Once edit mode is disabled through either of these
statements, you can use any of the Seedit commands.
For more information and examples related to edit mode, see the description of the
GET command on page 4-5.

CONNECT
The CONNECT command moves a SeeView process from one terminal to another in
order to allow moves between geographic locations or to recover from emergency
situations. Once connected, you can return your SeeView process back to the terminal
where it was originally entered. Select CONNECT from the SeeShell Extras menu.
$process
specifies the SeeView process to be moved from its current terminal to the terminal
specified with the TO option.
Note. Typing E or ESCAPE on the sill of the edit-mode window provides the option of
terminating edit mode without saving any of the changes. Reenabling edit mode permits
subsequent saving of the file.
Note. SAVE is a SeeView statement, not a Seedit command. For information on SAVE, see
Section 9, SeeView Statements and Script Symbols
