Open/Shut
Qedit/UX uses three forms of workfiles: original, Jumbo, and Wide-Jumbo. The Wide-Jumbo format is new and is used for most files on which you use the Text command. On HP-UX, the original format is unable to save some information about your file (due to technical differences in how the Qedit workfiles are stored on MPE versus HP-UX). Once you shut an original file, the following is lost:
- The name of the file from which you texted.
- The current line number.
- The ability to immediately reopen the file and "Undo" changes.
- The settings for Set Left and Set Right.
For these reasons, Wide-Jumbo workfiles will be the standard in Qedit/UX.
