Explanation Of {SYSTEM}EDITTYPE~ Macro Comman |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer would like to know how the macro command {SYSTEM}EDITTYPE~ is used. Solutions: This command is used to show all the different types of edit modes. That is why it is called "EDITTYPE". The following is an example of how this command could be used: {PROMPT}EDITTYPE equals: {SYSTEM}edittype~~ If the macro is ran when the cursor is currently at the L/R margin option (Shift-F8, L, M), the prompt would say "EDITTYPE equals: 4". Thus, a macro can have a little more view of where the cursor is located instead of being generally blind through an execution process. A "Menu" equals 0, a "Main Editing Screen" equals 1, a "Substructure" equals 2, a line at a prompt (like a description for the Paper/Size Type) equals 4, and a "window" (which consists of multiple lines of text) equals 8. These are the different types of edit modes and the values that the EDITTYPE command will return. |
