-
- SEE has a print command which prints your document. If you hit Print (Ctrl-F9)
- SEE will print from the line you're on to the end of the document. If you want
- to print an entire document, use Ctrl-Home to get to the top of the document
- and hit Print.
-
- Print accepts arguments. Rectangle widths are ignored, but the top and bottom
- are used to specify the pages to print. ESC filename Print causes your document
- to be printed to "filename" instead of to PRN:.
-
- SEE has a feature known as Auto-Return. When this feature is on, SEE hits the
- return key for you when you're near the right edge of the screen. Usually this
- is a good thing, but at times it can be very annoying. Ctrl-A toggles this
- feature off and on.
-
- You can change the name of a document by doing ESC newname Ctrl-N. This feature
- is for people who want to make a new file which is almost identical to some
- other file. The document will be saved to disk with the new name; the old name
- is immediately forgotten by SEE.
-

-
- Put and Paste also take rectangular arguments. However, Put and Paste use these
- arguments as a repetition count. For example, use Get to pick up a letter "a"
- from somewhere (place the cursor on any "a", click, move right one space, and
- hit Get (F3)). Now, move the cursor to just past the ">" below, and click.
- Move the cursor down 4 lines and to the right 5 spaces. Now hit Put (F4). Put
- makes an array of "a"s five by five.

-
-
- Now, use Get (F3) to pick up "abc " (move the cursor on the "a", click, move
- right to one past the space, and hit Get). Move the cursor back to the ">", and
- click. Move down 4 lines and to the right 5 spaces, and hit Paste (Ctrl-F4).
- Paste makes copies in an array five by five, and pastes the copies down on top
- of the a's, wiping them out.

- SEE LESSON 4 Screen 3
-
- Sometimes it will happen that you will click at the wrong place. If this
- happens, just move to the right place and click again. SEE will move the mark.
- If you happen to click when you didn't mean to, move the cursor to the place
- where you clicked, and hit Move (F9 or Mouse Right). This will get rid of the
- unwanted file mark without making any changes.
-
- Move the cursor so that it is on this "X" and hit Move (F9). Move moves the
- current line to the top of the screen.
-
- Place the cursor on top of this "X", and click. Now, place the cursor over this
- "Y". Hit Move (F9). Move moves the window in any direction. Now hit Return.
-
- Move interprets cursor arguments as: move This character (click), to Here (move
- the cursor and hit Move). Return, as you have seen, always restores the file to
- the normal unshifted position.
-
- Place the cursor on this "X". If you have a mouse, click the RIGHT button. If
- you don't, hit Move. The right mouse button is equivalent to F9, so you can
- scroll through a file using only the mouse. Try using the left and right mouse
- buttons to quickly move the file up, down, right, and left.
-
- Move can also take a text argument. ESC number Move will make line #number
- visible and place the cursor on it. Try doing ESC 5 Move now; then hit PgDn to
- return. If you enter garbage, SEE will pick either the top or the bottom of the
- file. This feature is for programmers: compilers often report errors in terms
- of line numbers.
-
- SEE has control key aliases for some of the most frequently used commands.
- These are present for touch-typists who hate to remove their hands from the
- keyboard. These are:
-
- ^A - Autoreturn ^F - PG DN ^O - Open ^U - Back Tab
- ^B - PG UP ^G - Get ^P - Put
- ^C - Close ^I - Tab ^Q - Mark File ^X - Quote
- ^D - Delete ^J - Justify ^R - Restore ^Z - Exit
- ^E - End Line ^N - Name File ^S - Search
