HP SYSTEM DICTIONARY XL UTILITIES-Part 3 SDVPD

REDO COMMAND 

The REDO command allows you to correct errors or to make changes to the
last command you issued.  When you issue the REDO command, you will enter
an editing mode and the first line of the command will be displayed for
modification.

To modify the command, position the cursor using the space bar, under the
character to be modified and enter one of the subcommands listed below.

SDVPD interprets any character other than the ones listed below as a
replacement character.  For example, if you type "MODIFY" below a
character, since M is not a valid edit command, "MODIFY" will replace the
six characters on the line above.

Subcommand Description 

A                Appends one or more characters following the subcommand
                 to the end of the current line.

B                Breaks the line into two lines, moving the character
                 that is above the cursor and all following characters to
                 the next line.  The second line becomes the current edit
                 line.

D                Deletes the character above the D. If you repeat D, each
                 character above each D is deleted.  You may also use a D
                 below the first and last character to be deleted with
                 spaces in between.

E                Exits the REDO editing mode without executing the edited
                 command.  The command that you were editing when you
                 entered E is still considered to be the last one.

H                Lists all available editing sub-commands in redo mode.
                 Your current editing line is then redisplayed.

I                Inserts one or more characters immediately preceding the
                 character that is above the cursor.  You can combine a
                 DELETE and INSERT edit by using D' s followed by an I
                 and the characters to be inserted.

L                Lists the complete command as it is currently edited and
                 then redisplay the line you are currently editing.

R                Replaces the characters above the cursor with the new
                 characters you enter.  The first character to be
                 replaced is the one above the R.

X                Executes the current command as it has been edited.

+n               Places you on the next line of the command you are
                 editing.  You can enter + followed by a number n, for
                 the number of lines you want to skip forward.  If no
                 number is entered, the default is to move forward one
                 line.

-n               Places you on the previous line of the command you are
                 editing.  You can enter followed by a number n, for the
                 number of lines you want to skip backward.  If no number
                 is entered, the default is to is to move backward one
                 line.

[[RETURN]]       Places you on the next line of the command you are
                 editing, if you are not currently on the last line of
                 the command.  If you are on the last line, executes the
                 command as it has been edited.

Example: 

     > DEFINE DICTIONARY=sysdic; 
     >> SCOPPE=manager; 
     >> PASSWORD=Mgr*; 
     >> OPEN-MODE=shared-update. 
     SCOPPE=manager;
     ^
