Starting Screen Mode
After you have invoked Qedit, and used Text or Open to access a file, you can switch from Line mode to Screen mode by typing "vi." If you don't have a file open when you type "vi", Qedit will open an empty scratch file and fill it with a blank line.
In Line mode you must type command and text lines, and press Return after each line. In Screen mode you can edit a full screen of text by moving the cursor around the screen, inserting and deleting lines and characters, and joining and splitting lines. To move through the file, use PF3 and PF4 (or the Prev and Next keys if you have a VT220 or above).
You can perform additional editing functions by using control-key sequences. For example, to mark the first line in a cut-and-paste operation, press ^L. When you are finished editing, use ^E to exit Screen mode.
