- NEW COMMANDS
-
- You may now execute DOS commands without leaving RED.
- Just type ^C to enter command mode, then an exclamation mark (!),
- followed by any DOS command. For instance:
-
- !dir
-
- will give you a directory listing. Any program or batch file may be invoked in
- this manner. For example:
-
- !dif a b
-
- will run the dif program on the files a and b. You may invoke another level of
- the DOS command processor by typing
-
- !command
-
- in command mode.
-
- Two new commands modify the way searches and changes work. The 'word' command
- insures that only entire words will match the search mask. The 'noword' command
- allows the search mask to be found even within words. RED starts operation as
- if a noword command had been given. Thanks are due to Ralph Dratman for all of
- these new features and commands.
-
- The 'again' command repeats the previous change, find, findr or search command,
- starting at the current cursor position. This is very handy to have.
-
-
- ABBREVIATIONS OF COMMANDS
-
- The following abbreviations for command mode commands are allowed:
-
- a again
- c change
- f find
- fr findr
- q quit
- l load
- r resave
- rx resave and exit
- s search
