APPENDIX E: Editing the UCTP
The Editor’s Command Characters
You can control the editor with several special command characters. These
characters are shown in the two lines at the bottom of the screen. The
functions of some of the characters are:
Enter
Insert a line
Ctrl-Y
Delete a line
F1
Load the help menu
F6
Print the contents of a file
F8
Save the file
F9
Create a new file
F10
Exit program
To insert a Backspace, Esc, or Enter character into a file you are editing, hold
the Shift key while pressing the corresponding key.
You can enter any of the 256 available ASCII characters numerically by
holding down the Alt key and entering the numeric character code (0 to 255)
on the numeric keypad (not the digit keys above the letter keyboard).
[F6] Printing
When you select [F6] to print the currently loaded command file, the print
job is always sent out of the PC’s LPT1 parallel port. If you want to redirect
this to a serial port, use the DOS MODE command.
[F9] Reinitializing
Used to remove the current file in the Editor and create a new one.
NOTE
If the resident UCTP is already loaded in memory, the computer must be
rebooted to update or change the active .PRO file.
