WINDOW COMMANDS
NYWord allows you to have two horizontal windows on the screen at the
same time. Each window can have a separate file, or the same file.
Since the 10 "pick" buffers are common to both windows, you can cut
and paste text between windows. You can copy or pick text into a
buffer,move to the other window, then use the <PUT> command to trans-
fer the text from the pick buffer into the window.
<SPLIT WINDOW> opens up another window at the bottom half on the
screen. You are prompted for the name of the file to be in the bottom
window. Type the file name, or press <RETURN> if you want the same
file in the bottom window.
<GOTO WINDOW> moves the cursor to its previous position in the other
window.
<CLOSE WINDOW> closes the current window and makes file in the other
window the current file. You are prompted to save the file in the
closed window.
<CHANGE WINDOW> closes the file in the current window, and prompts you
for a new file to be edited in that window. This is equivalent to
closing a window, and splitting it again.
<CHANGE WINDOW SIZE> allows you to change the size of the current
window. You can have the window take anywhere from 3 lines to the
whole screen. If you have two full-screen windows, then you can toggle
between them with the <GOTO WINDOW> command.
