The text of this lesson is taken mostly from the
document DOC:SEDMAN.DOC (by Christopher Hall).
The SED lessons do not give you a complete description of SED,
but will give you enough knowledge to get you started.
If you want to learn the more complicated commands, you should
read the document DOC:SED.DOC.
%TEXT
You should run this lesson only if you have used the material
covered in the first three lessons enough to be comfortable with
it. If you try running this lesson directly after taking the previous
lessons, without a chance to practice what you have learned, chances
are you will get confused and not learn much.

Purpose of this Lesson
======================
This lesson will teach you
-new ways of using parameters,
-how to edit two files at a time,
-how to copy and delete large blocks of text
(bigger than one page),
-how to get help and status information from SED, and
-how to set switches to invoke options at monitor level,
during editing, and in a SWITCH.INI file.
%TEXT outsymbol(12);
Defining the parameter by moving the cursor
===========================================
You don't need to know how to count in order to issue editor
commands. Instead of typing, say, <ENTER-PARAMETER>7<DELETE-SPACES>,
you could type <ENTER-PARAMETER> and then move the cursor over the
characters you want to delete (using <TAB> or <CURSOR-RIGHT>
(right arrow)). Then type <DELETE-SPACES>, and the text between
where the cursor started and where it ended will be deleted. This
method of passing a parameter is called "cursor movement." It is
often a lot easier to use than counting.
%TEXT
When you initiate cursor movement the editor will type "Parm
defined by cursor movement" in reverse video at the bottom of the
screen, as a reminder.
%TEXT
Cursor movement works across a span of lines, too, and often
can cover a change of both lines and spaces. For example, if you
wanted to delete a whole line, and part of the line after it, you
would position the cursor at the beginning of the first line you
want to delete, type <ENTER-PARAMETER>, then position the cursor
at the point in the next line where you want to stop deleting, then
type <DELETE-LINES>.
%TEXT
Any key that moves the cursor can be used for a cursor
movement parameter (remember that the space bar is not a cursor
mover, it INSERTS a space). SED looks only at where the cursor
starts and where it ends up; it doesn't matter what the cursor
passes over on the way. So the quickest way of getting the cursor
where you want it is the best way.
%QUESTION doyouknow:

There are many commands with which you can use parameters
defined by cursor movement.
<DELETE-SPACES> will delete all the text in the "rectangle"
defined by the beginning and the end of the cursor movement.
That is, the intersection of lines and columns between the two
cursor movement "end points" will be deleted.
For example, in the lines below, if we start cursor movement
parameter definition at the first "*" (top left), and we end
it after the last "*" (bottom right, on the next "t"),
all that will be deleted is the "*"'s.
before:
text text text **************text text text text
text text text **************text text text text
text text text **************text text text text
after:
text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text
<INSERT-SPACES> will insert spaces inside a rectangle defined
as for the <DELETE-SPACES> command above. (The text to the right
of the first endpoint column will be shoved to the right of the last
endpoint column).
%TEXT
<DELETE-LINES> will delete all the lines between the two
endpoints, and store them in the delete buffer.
For example, if we begin cursor movement at the first "*", and
end it after the last "*" in the example below, all the "*"'s
will be deleted and stored in the delete buffer.
before:
text text text ******************************
*********************************************
****************************text text text
after:
text text text text text text
%TEXT
<INSERT-LINES> will insert blank lines filling up the
space between the endpoints, starting at the first endpoint.
(The text after the first endpoint will be shoved over to
where the second endpoint is, and the space in between will
be blanked out).
%TEXT
<PICK> command will put all the lines between the
two endpoints into the put buffer.
<PUT> command will put all the lines between the
two endpoints into the put buffer, and into the file
where the first endpoint is (thus the file will have
two copies of this set of lines, one after the other).
%TEXT
<SEARCH-FORWARD> or <SEARCH-BACKWARD> will search
for the next or previous occurrence of the text-string
between the two end-points (note that you cannot define
a search key over several lines!).
%TEXT
That covers cursor movement for the commands you have
learned so far. In general, cursor movement works wherever
you would expect it to. Practice this kind of parameter use
on a test file, to get a hang of it. Don't experiment on an
important file, as you may lose part of it by doing the wrong
things.

Token parameters
================
Sometimes the parameter you want is looking up at you
from the terminal screen. Instead of typing it, you can have
SED pick it up from the file. Such a parameter is called a
"token."
%TEXT
To get a token parameter, position the cursor at the
start of the thing you want and type <ENTER-PARAMETER><command>
(where <command> is whatever command you're giving the parameter
to). Either the "word" at the cursor location or the length of
that "word" will be taken as the command's parameter.
A "word" is defined to be the text starting at the cursor and
extending to the first non-alphanumeric character.
%TEXT
If the command takes a numeric parameter, the size of the
token is used, otherwise the actual string is used. For example,
to delete a word from the file, position the cursor to it and
type <ENTER-PARAMETER><DELETE-SPACES>. To search for the word
at the cursor position type <ENTER-PARAMETER><SEARCH-FORWARD>.
%TEXT
Not all commands allow token parameters. You've seen the
<PERCENT-GOTO> and <PUT> commands, where <ENTER-PARAMETER><command>
has a special non-token meaning. However, in general if a token
makes sense for a command, it is legal. Experiment and see what
happens.

IMPORTANT:
Please remember that after you use any command with a parameter,
that parameter remains for that command (and its parameter-sharing
partner) until you change it. Thus if you use <DELETE-SPACES>
with a cursor movement or token parameter, the length of that
parameter will remain as the parameter. In the last example, for
instance, you deleted "quick "; therefore, if you now use
<DELETE-SPACES> without specifying a parameter, SED will delete 6
characters.
%text outsymbol(12);
Changing files while editing
============================
If you are editing a file, and you want to do something to
a second file, you can get to it by typing
<ENTER-PARAMETER><file2><SET-FILE>
where <file2> is the filespecs for your second file and the
<SET-FILE> command is the numeric keypad "1". SED will save the
first file (remembering where you are in that file) and display
the first page of the second file for editing. You can return to
the first file by typing just the <SET-FILE> command (this will
put you back exactly where you left off when you typed the first
<SET-FILE> command). Then you can get back to the second file
by typing another <SET-FILE> (again returning where you left off).
%TEXT
If you give as a parameter the name of the file you are
currently editing, then you can toggle between two points in the
same file.
%TEXT
This command is especially useful if you wish to copy
parts of one file into another, because typing the <SET-FILE>
command does not alter the buffers or the parameter values.
Thus you could go to file1, <PICK> some text, type the <SET-FILE>
command, and <PUT> the picked text into file2.

Picking or deleting large blocks of text
========================================
If you want to pick or delete a few lines of text,
you can simply type <ENTER-PARAMETER>, the number
of lines to pick or delete, and then the desired command.
You could also type <ENTER-PARAMETER>, and then use
cursor movement to get the lines you want.
However, if you want to pick or delete a large
number of lines (more than a screen-full), you would
not be able to use cursor movement, and it would
be awkward to have to count the number of lines
you want deleted.
%TEXT
Using the <MARK> command, numeric keypad 7,
you can mark your current position in the file,
move forward or backward to any other position, and
do a <PICK> or <DELETE-LINES> which will affect all
of the text between the mark and the ending cursor
position. You can use <ROLLs>, <SEARCHes>, <PERCENT_GOTO>,
or an other command which does not modify the file, to
get to the other end of the text you want to work with.
The <PICK>ed or <DELETE>d text can be <PUT> (back) in the
file in the normal fashion (by typing <PUT> or
<ENTER-PARAMETER><PUT>.

Getting information from SED
============================
There are three ways you can get help from SED while
you are running it.
You can get information about any command by typing
<ENTER-PARAMETER><ENTER-PARAMETER><command>
where <command> is the command you want information on.
%ALGOL

%TEXT pause;
Note that the above text is in reverse video to show you
what is typed out by SED. When you run SED, it will not type
the help messages in reverse video.
%TEXT
Once you have typed two <ENTER-PARAMETER>s, SED will stay
in help mode until you type a "G". That way, you can get help
on as many commands as you want, without having to retype the
two <ENTER-PARAMETER>s each time.
%TEXT outsymbol(12);
To get file status information, type the <SWITCH> command,
which consists of typing the numeric keypad "2".
The editor will write on the bottom of the screen a line which
looks like:
FILE: DSKB0:FILE.EXT[107006,1314] LINE: 123(53%) POS: 45 ALT:FILE2.EXT
This line says that the current file is "FILE.EXT", on account number
[107006,1314], the cursor is at the 123rd line, which is 53% through
the file, it is positioned at the 45th column, and the alternate
file (if you are editing two files) is "FILE2.EXT."
%TEXT outsymbol(12);
To find out what the current parameter values are for various
commands, type <ENTER-PARAMETER><SWITCH>. (<SWITCH> is keypad 2).
This will give you a line like:

Setting Switches
================
The main use of the <SWITCH> command (keypad 2) is to set
switches. To set switches when you are in SED, type
<ENTER-PARAMETER>/switch1/switch2/...<SWITCH>
where switch1, switch2, ... are the switches you wish to set.
(You must precede switches with a "/").
%TEXT
You can also set switches when entering SED, by issuing
the monitor command:
SED FILE.EXT/switch1/switch2/...
where FILE.EXT is the file you are editing, and switch1, switch2, ...
are the switches you wish to set.
%TEXT
Switches for SED can also be put in your SWITCH.INI file,
if you have one. (If you don't have one, and want to know more
about it, see the help file "SWITCH.HLP". You can type it out
on your terminal by issuing the monitor command "HELP SWITCH"
or you can have it printed on the lineprinter by issuing the
monitor command "PRI HLP:SWITCH.HLP".
%TEXT
There are a number of switches which you can set to tailor
SED to your own tastes. Here are the most useful ones. See the
reference manual, "DOC:SED.DOC", for a description of all the
switches.
BACKUP make a backup file on exit
CASE make searches case-dependent
LENG:n make SED think the terminal is n lines long
ISAVE:n do an incremental save every n commands
RESET reset parameters to default values after each command
SAVE:n do and incremental save every n characters of type-in
STRIP strip off SOS line numbers before editing a file
TABS:n set tabs to be every n spaces
WIDTH:n make SED think the terminal is n spaces wide
%TEXT
SED starts with /BACKUP/CASE/NOISAVE/NORESET/NOSAVE/NOSTRIP/TABS:8.
LENGTH and WIDTH are the dimensions of your terminal.
Most switches can be prefixed with NO to turn them off. For
example, /NOCASE will make searches case-independant.
/NOTABS will make the tab-stops correspond with the start of
words (words are any string of characters between spaces), this
is called "word-wise" tabs.

In winter when the fields are white,
I sing this song for your delight.
The cursor starts out on the "t" in "the", you type:
<ENTER-PARAMETER><CURSOR-DOWN><CURSOR-RIGHT><CURSOR-RIGHT><command>,
where <command> is some command. The resulting text is:
In winter when
the fields are white,
I sing this song for your delight.
%QUESTION
Which of the following is the <command>?
1) <INSERT-SPACES> (control-B)

1) fragilistic
2) gilistic
3) super-cali-fragilistic-expi-ali-docious
4) gilistic-expi-ali-docious
%RIGHT 2
%RIGHT 2)
%WRONG 1
The token parameter is the "word" at the cursor position.
However, a "word" is defined to be the text string
STARTING AT THE CURSOR and extending to the first
non-alphanumeric character.
%WRONG 3
The token parameter is the "word" at the cursor position.
However, a "word" is defined to be the text string
STARTING AT THE CURSOR and extending to the first
NON-ALPHANUMERIC character. "-" is the first non-alphanumeric
character after the cursor.
%WRONG 4
The token parameter is the "word" at the cursor position.
However, a "word" is defined to be the text string
starting at the cursor and extending to the first
NON-ALPHANUMERIC character. "-" is the first non-alphanumeric
character after the cursor.

4) <ENTER-PARAMETER>/STATUS<SWITCH>
%RIGHT 2
%RIGHT 2)
%WRONG 2
<SWITCH> would give you file status information.
%WRONG 3
That would try to set a switch called "/PARAM", which doesn't
