Qualifiers

Additional information available:

/APPEND/BUFFER/CLIPBOARD/ERASE/REPLACE/SUBSTITUTE

      /APPEND
      /NOAPPEND (D)

   Indicates whether the moved text should be appended to the current
   contents of the receiving buffer or should replace the current
   contents of the receiving buffer.

      /BUFFER=buffer-name
      /BUFFER=$PASTE (D)

   Specifies the buffer to receive the text being moved. If the
   /REPLACE or /SUBSTITUTE qualifier is specified, then the indicated
   buffer supplies text to replace text being erased from the current
   buffer.

   Specifies that the DECwindows clipboard should be used to receive
   the text being moved, instead of a buffer. The /CLIPBOARD and
   /BUFFER qualifiers are mutually exclusive.

      /ERASE (D)
      /NOERASE

   Specifies whether or not the moved text should be deleted from the
   current buffer. LSE ignores this qualifier if the current buffer
   is not modifiable.

   Erases the selected text and replaces it with the contents of the
   indicated buffer.

   Erases the search string, replaces it with the contents of the
   buffer indicated in the /BUFFER qualifier, and finds the next
   occurrence of the string. To use this qualifier, do the following:

   1. Issue the SET SELECT_MARK command (press the SELECT key) at the
      command prompt.

   2. Type the new text in the buffer.

   3. Issue the CUT command (press the CUT or REMOVE key) at the
      command prompt. This places the text in the indicated buffer.

   4. Issue the SEARCH command (press the FIND key) at the command
      prompt, followed by the text you want to search for and
      replace.

   5. Press the ENTER key.

   6. Issue the CUT/SUBSTITUTE command (press the SUBS key) at the
      command prompt.

   Subsequently, each time you issue the CUT/SUBSTITUTE command, LSE
   makes one substitution and finds the next occurrence of the search
   string.
