Creating a Named Paste Buffer
To write a text passage to a named buffer, use one of these commands:
•
copy_mark buffername
•
delete_mark buffername
•
insert_string -buffer buffername
Buffer names are case-sensitive within the Arbortext Command Language. Thus, you can create one buffer named bills and another named Bills.
 |
Unless the -append option is specified, any time you write to the named buffer, the current text replaces the contents of the buffer.
|
To insert the contents of a named paste buffer, use the command paste buffername. In this example, enter the following at the Arbortext Editor command line:
paste warntext
