                      Other - General management

     The "Other" menu contains the following items:

Help                    [F1]       - invoke the help feature.

     (Mouse: Place the mouse cursor to the "Hit <F1> for help" line at the
     bottom of the screen and press the left button.)

Text/hex                [F2]       - toggle between text and hex modes.

Kbd buffer on/off       [Shift-F4] - toggle keyboard buffer on/off

     (Mouse: Place the mouse cursor onto the buffer indicator "B" in the
     editor's status line and press the left button.) When you press a key,
     the corresponding character is first stored in the so-called keyboard
     buffer and only then is it transferred to the computer memory. This is
     very convenient, since you can type characters even while the processor
     unit is busy processing information. However, if you are too fast in
     typing characters, the keyboard buffer gets overfilled, and you will be
     notified of this with a beep signal. It is not very convenient, for
     example, when you are editing a file in hexadecimal mode). To cope with
     such cases you can turn OFF the keyboard buffer. The letter "B" in the
     editor's status line indicates that the keyboard buffer is ON.

DOS screen              [Ctrl-O]   - invoke the DOS screen.

Insert/replace          [Ins]      - togle between insert/replace modes.

     (You can also toggle the mode by placing the mouse cursor onto the
     indicator of Insert/Replace mode in the editor's status line and
     pressing the left button.)
     When in insert mode, you can insert a new character at the position the
     cursor points to, the line to the right of the cursor shifting one
     position to the right. If the editor is in this mode, the status line
     at the top of the screen displays the indicator of Insert mode (letter
     "I") between indicators of the case-sensitive search (letter "M") and
     the keyboard buffer (letter "B"). When in replace mode, the character
     "I" in the status line is replaced with the character "R" (replace). In
     Replace mode a new character is written instead of an "old" one. This
     mode is, for example, convenient if you are filling out an already
     framed table and do not want to disturb the frame.

EOL/EOF marks on/off    [Ctrl-F4]  - switch on/off the EOL/EOF symbols.

Main menu               [Esc]      - quit the editor (if the file has
                                     not been modified).

Save and exit           [Esc]      - quit the editor (if you modified
                                     the file).
     If you made some changes in the file the following query panel appears
     on the screen:

               +------------------------------------------+
               |           Quitting the editor            |
               +------------------------------------------+
               |         Save the latest changes?         |
               |   Save  Don't save  Back to the editor   |
               +------------------------------------------+

     Select the desired item.

     It should be noted that CP's built-in editor does not create the
     backup (.bak) copies of the files.

Calculate line number   [Alt-F5]   - calculate the number of the current
                                     line.


                           Copying paragraphs

     First mark the paragragh you would like to copy by pressing [F3] at the
start and at the end of the string to be copied. To move the marked text to
another file press the keys [Shift-F3] to pop up a panel for entering the
target file name. Type in the name of the file where you want to send the
marked text.

     If the file with the same name already exists another panel will pop
up:

                     +-------------------------------+
                     |  File D:\A.A already exists.  |
                     |     Overwrite  Skip  Merge    |
                     +-------------------------------+

     Select one of the options:

"Overwrite" - the file with the specified name will be overwritten,
"Skip"      - the existing file will be preserved,
"Move"      - the marked file will be added to the existing one.
