IBM Professional Series User Manual

The editor is waiting for you to enter an "f" (or "p").
BLOCK INCOMPLETE
The editor is waiting for you to enter the second "cc."
Moving Lines
Moving lines means to remove them from their original place
and put them in another.
The procedure for moving lines
is the same as for copying
lines, except you use an m prefix command (instead of a c
prefix command). As with copying, you must show the
destination line with an
"f" or a "p. " You can move more
than one line by typing a number before or after the
"m."
You can move a block of lines the same way you would copy
a block. Just type
"mm" (instead of "cc") in the prefix area
of
both the first and last lines of the block. Indicate the
destination by using
"f" or "p."
Cancelling a Prefix Command - RESET Command
You know that scrolling the file while entering different parts
of a prefix command causes the status area to display:
BLOCK INCOMPLETE OR COPY/MOVE PENDING
If you change your mind mid-stream, you can cancel the
operation
by entering this command (in the large arrow
command line):
===> RESet
If you have typed any prefix commands (even those that do
not cause the notices above to be displayed)
but have not yet
pressed
ENTER, you can press the CLEAR key to remove
them from the prefix area.
LOCATE and CHANGE Commands
You use a LOCATE command to locate the line that
contains the text you
want to change. Its format is:
Locate/your data
