Figure 4-11. Sample Set Edit Menu for Pascal File Fields Figure 4-11 shows an example of the SET EDIT menu. The following text describes the fields in that menu. SOURCE LANGUAGE Indicates which language is being used in your source program. This selection affects other Editor and Program key options, such as the format of sequence numbers. For COBOL files, the sequence number can have up to 4 digits on the left side of the decimal point and two digits on the right. For other language files, including Pascal, 5 digits can be used to the left of the decimal point and 3 to the right. PROGRAM STRUCTURE Tells TOOLSET/XL the source language structure contained in your edit file. You can change this option at any time. LISTFILE NAME The name of the on-line listing file to be associated with this source file. If a new file is being created, TOOLSET/XL will supply a default name. If no on-line listing is desired, enter spaces. LINELENGTH Sets the length of the logical records in your file. This should be set to the maximum number of characters you want per record, excluding the sequence number. The default is 74 for COBOL and 72 for other languages. You cannot reset this option. FILESIZE Is the number of logical records in your file. The default is 6000 records. This option cannot be reset. GUIDE Setting the Guide option ON places a column guide across the first line of the screen during the visual mode editing, starting with column 7 for COBOL files and column 1 for other files, including Pascal. The guide remains there until you set the guide option OFF or until you end editing the file. The default is set OFF. INCREMENT Is the default increment for your file. Is used if no increment is explicitly given, if the implied increment is larger, and if a sufficient amount of space is available. An increment is implied by the destination location you give when moving text. A text move to line 10.03 implies an increment of .01. A text move to 5.2 implies an increment of .1. TABS To use the default tabs for a particular source language, set the Tabs option to other and indicate the tabs you want by entering the characters in the specific columns under the column guide on the menu. To eliminate all tabs, set tabs to off. A maximum of 10 tab locations may be set.
