Edit                                            F4, Shift + F4
 Edit  loads  the file under the cursor bar (in a file panel)
 into the Commander's editor (or an editor of your choice, if
 you've set one up -- see note below).

Creating a file:
 To create a new file, press Shift + F4 and  type in the name
 for the new file. You'll see the following dialog:

                  +------- Edit --------+
                  | Can't find the file |
                  |     somefile.ext    |
                  |  New-file   Cancel  |
                  +---------------------+

 Press Enter to create a new file.

   Notes:
     .  You can create and maintain the extension file called
        VCEDIT.EXT,  which   associates   editors  with  file
        extensions. Use  the Editor... item  in  the  Options
        menu to do it.

     .  Pressing Shift + F4, or holding down the Shift key as
        you select this menu item, brings  up  a  dialog  box
        into which you can type the name of the file you want
        to edit:

            +----------------- Edit ------------------+
            | Edit the file:                          |
            | _                                       |
            +-----------------------------------------+
