MISCELLANEOUS COMMANDS
<MATCH BRACE> (the CTRL B key) will find a corresponding curly brace
or parenthesis. If the cursor is on a left curly brace or a left
parenthesis, then the editor will search forward for a corresponding
right brace or right paren. If the cursor is on a right brace or a
right paren, then the editor will search backwards for the correspond-
ing left brace or left paren. If the match is found, then the cursor
is placed on the matched character. If no match is found, an error
message will be given.
<VERSION> (the ALT V key) prints the current version of ME.
<REDRAW SCREEN> (ALT R key) clears the screen and draws a new copy of
the text on the screen. This is useful if you are not sure of what's
on the screen, or if funny characters appear on your screen due to
noise on communication lines.
<TOGGLE EGA> (the CTRL E key) will toggle you in and out of 43 line
mode if you have an Enhanced Graphics Adapter,
<SET TABS> (the ALT T key) allows to to change the tab settings. You
are prompted for a list of tab settings. Type a series of numbers,
each separated by a blank.
<OPERATING SYSTEM> (ALT X key) allows you to execute an operating sys-
tem command from within the word processor. Type the command, followed
by <RETURN>, and the command will be executed. After the command is
finished, you will be brought back to your editing screen. In DOS, you
can invoke a secondary command processor by typing "command". You will
then "leave" the word processor, and you can interact with DOS. When
you want to return to the editing session, type the DOS command
"exit".
<HELP> (the ALT H key) displays help information on the screen.
