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.
