OPEN SELECTED

 Opens the file whose name you have selected or found -- same as GET FILE
 or OPEN, except you do not type the name of the file you want to edit or
 create.

 Steps:

    1.  Select or find the name of the file you want to edit.  The select
        range can be in EVE or in another DECwindows application running
        concurrently.

    2.  Use the OPEN SELECTED command.

 o  Opening a file for the first time creates a buffer named after that
    file.  If there is already a buffer by that name, EVE asks for a
    different name to use.  The new buffer has the same settings as the
    $DEFAULTS$ buffer.  (See help on Defaults.)

 o  If you specify a file you have already opened in the editing session,
    EVE returns to your last location in the buffer for that file, if the
    buffer still exists.

 o  You can use logical names and wildcards in the file specification.  If
    more than one file matches your request, EVE shows a list of matching
    files to choose from.  (See help on Choices Buffer.) You can open
    several files in an editing session, but only one per command.

 o  If you make a mistake in specifying the file, use the DELETE BUFFER
    command to discard the buffer.
