- SAVING FILES
-
- The F9 key is dedicated to saving files and will be discussed below.
- When saving a file to disk, you will always be provided with the
- opportunity to rename the file before saving it. (You cannot save any
- files in HELP mode, so we cannot try sample saves here.)
-
- If you change the name of the file and then try to save it and a file
- already exists with that name, you may optionally set a PC-TYPE+
- toggle to inform you of that fact. PC-TYPE+ is initially delivered
- with this toggle active. (See HELP file TOGGLES.)
-
- If you attempt to save a file on top of an already existing file, you
- may be asked if you want to create a .BAK file (Backup) before doing
- the save. This is another toggle which may be made automatic or
- turned off completely. It will only make a backup the first time you
- save a file within the current active file. (See HELP file TOGGLES.)
-
- Press the PgDn Key
-
- (F9=FILE - Shift F9=SAVE - Ctrl F9=SAVE PART)
-
- You may save files in PC-TYPE+ by pressing:
-
- F9 - in which case the current active file will be saved to disk
- and you will be returned to DOS if there are no other
- active files in PC-TYPE+. If there are additional active
- files, then you will be returned to the editing session in
- the adjacent active file.
-
- Shift F9 - in which case the current active file will be saved to disk
- and you will be returned to the same file you were editing
- prior to pressing Shift F9.
-
- Ctrl F9 - in which case the MARKED area in the CURRENT active file
- will be saved to disk and you will be returned to the same
- file you were editing prior to pressing Ctrl F9.
