 editor.

FREE

 middle of a tab, or to the left of the left margin.
 This is similar to the default cursor motion for the

Additional information available:

/AFTER/BEFORE/LOG

/AFTER

    /AFTER[=library-spec]

 Instructs SCA to insert the new library or libraries
 into the list of active SCA libraries after the library
 you specify as the qualifier value. If you do not
 specify a value, SCA adds the library or libraries
 to the end of the list.

/BEFORE

 into the list of active SCA libraries before the
 library you specify as the qualifier value. If you do
 not specify a value, SCA adds the library or libraries
 to the beginning of the list.

/LOG

    /LOG (D)
    /NOLOG

 Indicates whether SCA reports the resulting list of
 active SCA libraries.

Parameter

=TITLE Parameter

directory-spec[,...]
 Specifies one or more directories, each of which
 comprises a separate SCA library. The list of libraries
 you specify replaces the current list of active
 libraries unless you specify an /AFTER or /BEFORE

 keypad emulation, select range, tab appearance, and
 the use of graphic characters in menus.

 Format

     SET MODE   keyword-list

Additional information available:

=TITLE Parameter

keyword-list
 Indicates the modes to be set or reset. The mode
 keywords and their effects are as follows:

BELL=NONE
 Specifies which new messages should be accompanied by
 a warning bell character. By default, only broadcast
 messages are accompanied by a warning bell.

KEYPAD=EDT
 Specifies whether the key definitions should be similar
 to EDT or EVE. Note that EVE key definitions do not use
 the numeric keypad on VT200 terminals; numeric keypads
 on VT200-series terminals emulate EDT key definitions
 regardless of the keypad mode you choose.

MENU=[NO]GRAPHICS
 Lets you choose between graphic characters and
 nongraphic characters in the display of a menu. The
 initial setting is MENU=GRAPHICS. If the terminal
 characteristics do not include DEC_CRT, then LSE uses
 nongraphic characters regardless of the setting of this
 mode.

 Graphic characters currently require more screen
 repainting than do nongraphic characters, so you may
 want to use SET MODE MENU=NOGRAPHICS if you are working
 at a low baud rate.

PENDING_DELETE
 Specifies whether a selection in a user buffer should
 be deleted when the user inserts text. The initial
 setting is NOPENDING_DELETE. PENDING_DELETE is disabled
 for a selection made with SELECT ALL. You can use the

SCREEN

=TITLE SCREEN
 Sets specified characteristics of the screen.

 Format

     SET SCREEN   keyword-list

Additional information available:

=TITLE Parameter

keyword-list
 Indicates the screen characteristics to be set. The
 screen keywords are as follows:

BALANCE_WINDOWS (D)
 Specifies how LSE manages window length. If you specify
 BALANCE_WINDOWS, LSE adjusts all the window lengths
 on the screen to be, as nearly as possible, of equal
 lengths. This is the default value. If you specify
 NOBALANCE_WINDOWS, LSE splits the current window in
 half when it needs a new window, leaving all the other
 window lengths unchanged.

HEIGHT=n
 Specifies the number of lines on the screen. The
 height, n, must be an integer in the range 11 through
 62.

MAXIMUM_WINDOW_NUMBER=n
 Specifies the maximum number of windows LSE creates
 when it displays information in a window as a result of
 issuing one of the following commands:

    FIND
    GOTO DECLARATION
    GOTO SOURCE
    INSPECT
    REVIEW

 LSE uses the MAXIMUM_WINDOW_NUMBER and MINIMUM_WINDOW_
 LENGTH settings to determine whether to add a window
 to the screen or reuse an existing window. LSE checks
 both settings and creates a new window only if both
 conditions are met.

 The default value for MAXIMUM_WINDOW_NUMBER is 3.
 Specifying a value of 2 produces the two-window
 behavior previously associated with the commands listed
 under this keyword.

MINIMUM_WINDOW_LENGTH=n
 Specifies a lower bound on the windows LSE creates.
 When you need to map a buffer to a window, LSE creates
 a new window as long as the window is not shorter than
 n.

 LSE uses the MINIMUM_WINDOW_LENGTH and MAXIMUM_WINDOW_
 NUMBER settings to determine whether to add a window
 to the screen or reuse an existing window. LSE checks
 both settings and creates a new window only if both
 conditions are met.

WIDTH=n
 Specifies the number of characters on each input or
 output line. The width, n, must be an integer in the
 range 1 through 252.

 If you specify a width greater than 80, then LSE sets
 the terminal to 132-character mode. The initial setting
 is 80 characters.

WINDOW=n
 Specifies the number of windows to display on the
 screen.

 If you change the number of windows from one to two,
 LSE displays the current buffer in both windows. If
 you change the number of windows from two to one, LSE
 displays the current buffer in the single window. The
 initial setting is one window.

SCROLL_MARGINS

=TITLE SCROLL_MARGINS
 Delimits the lines at which the cursor triggers
 scrolling.

 Format

     SET SCROLL_MARGINS  top-line-count [%]

 the window height, rounded to the nearest whole line
 count. This is useful when you have a workstation with
 screens of varying sizes.

SEARCH

=TITLE SEARCH

 Format

     SET SEARCH  keyword-list

Additional information available:

=TITLE Parameter

keyword-list
 Indicates the search mode settings. The keywords are as
 follows:

 AUTO_REVERSE

 Specifies whether or not LSE searches in the current
 direction only, or searches in the opposite direction
 if the string is not found in the current direction.
 The initial setting is NOAUTO_REVERSE.

 CASE_SENSITIVE
 NOCASE_SENSITIVE

 Specifies whether or not the SEARCH command matches
 case exactly or is insensitive to character case. The
 initial setting is NOCASE_SENSITIVE.

 DIACRITICAL_SENSITIVE
 NODIACRITICAL_SENSITIVE

 characters with diacritical markings exactly or is
 insensitive to diacritical markings. The initial
 setting is DIACRITICAL_SENSITIVE.

 PATTERN=VMS

 VMS-style patterns for the SEARCH/PATTERN command. The
 initial setting is VMS.

 SPAN_SPACE
 NOSPAN_SPACE

 Determines whether LSE matches blanks in the search
 string exactly (NOSPAN_SPACE) or allows each blank to
 match sequences of one or more characters containing
 blanks and tabs and, at most, a single line break
 (SPAN_SPACE). The initial setting is NOSPAN_SPACE.

SELECT_MARK

/AFTER

    /AFTER (D)
    /AFTER[=directory-spec]

 Specifies that LSE should insert the directory

 directories in back of the directory you specify as
 the value on the qualifier. If you do not specify
 a directory-spec value, LSE adds the directory or
 directories to the end of the list.

 If you do not specify either the /AFTER qualifier
 or the /BEFORE qualifier, LSE replaces the entire
 directory list.

/BEFORE

    /BEFORE
    /BEFORE[=directory-spec]

 Specifies that LSE should insert the directory
 or directories indicated into the list of source
 directories in front of the directory you specify as
 the value on the qualifier. If you do not specify a
 directory-spec value, the directory or directories are
 added at the front of the list.

 If you do not specify either the /BEFORE qualifier or
 the /AFTER qualifier, LSE replaces the entire directory
 list.
