Editing Lines in New Files

If an incorrect character is entered as a line is being typed, it can be deleted with

the BACKSPACE or DEL keys, or with CTRL-H. After the character is deleted, you can continue
to type on the line.
The ESC key lets you delete a line from the screen that is in the process of being typed. In
other words, if you have not pressed the RETURN key, and you wish to delete the current line
of entry, press the ESC key.
To delete the entire program currently residing in memory, enter the NEW command. NEW is
usually used to clear memory prior to entering a new program.

Editing Lines in Saved Files

After you have entered your GW-BASIC program and saved it, you may discover that you need
to make some changes. To make these modifications, use the LIST statement to display the
program lines that are affected:
1. Reload the program.
2. Type the LIST command, or press the F1 key.
3. Type the line number, or range of numbers, to be edited.
The lines will appear on your screen.

Editing the Information in a Program Line

You can make changes to the information in a line by positioning the cursor where the change
is to be made, and by doing one of the following:
• Typing over the characters that are already there.
• Deleting characters to the left of the cursor, using the BACKSPACE key.
• Deleting characters at the cursor position using the DEL key on the number pad.
• Inserting characters at the cursor position by pressing the INS key on the number pad.
This moves the characters following the cursor to the right making room for the new
information.
• Adding to or truncating characters at the end of the program line.
If you have changed more than one line, be sure to press RETURN on each modified line. The
modified lines will be stored in the proper numerical sequence, even if the lines are not
updated in numerical order.

Note
A program line will not actually have changes recorded within the GW-BASIC program until
the RETURN key is pressed with the cursor positioned somewhere on the edited line.

To delete a line, simply type the line number and press the RETURN key. For example, if you
type 12 and press the RETURN key, line number 12 is deleted from your program.
