----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Note that this menu is similar in function to the one described in ì
Appendix K, Memo Options, with one exception: at this menu, you have ì
option 8. This allows you to turn 'On' or 'Off' the Help/Data screen.
The memo you create here is accessible throughout the entire program ì
just by entering the 'F1' function key! è
This menu will tell you at a glance the number of characters in the memo, ì
the current margins, and today's date. You can input an existing text file ì
into the memo with options 3 or 4. As your memo begins to grow and ì
accumulate different items, you can output it to an external text file ì
using option 2.
Option 1 puts you into the edit mode. In this option you are presented ì
with a full screen word processor with the following message on the bottom ì
of the screen:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit Screen Codes:
Up arrow = move up 1 line, Down arrow = move down 1 line, Left Arrow = move
left 1 character, Right arrow = move right 1 word, HOME = start of current
line, END = end of current line, [CONTROL] HOME= start of memo, [CONTROL]
END = end of memo, PgUp = Next edit window up, PgDn = Next edit window down,
[CONTROL] W = Finished editing and save, ESC = abort editing.
Use [INS] key for inserting text, [DEL] to delete, [CONTROL] B to reformat
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This message gives you the codes that you can use in the full screen word ì
processor. Immediately above these codes you will observe your cursor. ì
You can type as long as you wish, just as in any other word processor. ì
When finished entering text, you can save it by entering [CONTROL] W, as ì
per the instructions.
After you become conversant with the codes, you can replace the six lines ì
of the above instructions with this one line:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Edit Screen Codes: [CONTROL] W to save, ESC to abort
--------------------------------------------------------------
To toggle back and forth between these 2 different Screen Code help ì
screens, enter option 6 on the Memo Options Menu.
6) Toggle Edit Screen Code Help [Now Off]
Option 7 will print out the memo at this menu.
