AIX Version 4.3 INed Editor User's Guide

Chapter 1. INed Editor Overview

The INed editor is a full-screen text editor that allows you to view, enter, and revise text at any place in the editor window. (The window is the rectangular portion of the editor screen.) You can enter text in the window with a keyboard and edit or revise the text by using the editor command keys. These allow you to manipulate and format text by pressing the appropriate keys rather than typing and entering commands on a command line. Throughout this book, editor command keys are described for use in dtterm windows in the AIX Common Desktop Environment. For a summary of editor command keys, see INed Editor Functions for the Standard Keyboard. Use the key maps command to locate the appropriate editor command keys for your environment.
