- The True BASIC system displays two "windows" on your screen.
- The top 17 lines show your current file. The bottom 7 lines
- show your commands, and the results of True BASIC INPUT and PRINT
- statements. We call the top window the "editing window" and the bottom
- window the "history window."
-
- When you move into the editing window, you may change your program
- directly by using "screen editing." The editing window is like a word
- processor that lets you change your program simply be retyping parts
- of it. In other words, "What you see is what you get."
-
- The history window shows a history of your True BASIC session. The very
- last line of the history window is called the "command" line. When the
- cursor is on that line, you can issue commands such as RUN and SAVE.
