TEACH SWITCHWINDOW -- A QUICK WAY OF SWITCHING WINDOWS ----------------------------------- If you have been looking at two different files, like this file, and the one you were looking at previously, then you can switch between them quickly by giving an ESC x command. Try it a few times, i.e. Press: ESC (i.e. the key marked 'ESC') Press 'x' Notice how the cursor jumps from one window to another. It also tells you (on the command line) how many lines there are in the file it jumps into. Compare this with giving an ENTER teach command each time you want to switch from one file to another. E.g. ENTER teach switchwindow When you need to learn to switch between more than two files, try ENTER teach buffers After you have had a little practice with ESC x, you can get rid of this file by putting the cursor in this window, using ESC x, then typing ENTER q to Quit this file. If you later forget what is in it, you can look at it again by giving the command: ENTER teach switchwindow See also TEACH * BUFFERS --- C.all/teach/switchwindow ------------------------------------------- --- Copyright University of Sussex 1987.
