Refresh Line
Purpose
Redisplays the current line.
Default Syntax
ESC *
Description
This command redisplays a line in which part or all of the text appears
to have been altered for possibly one of the following reasons:
* An MPE message has appeared on the screen.
* You have accidentally pressed the Clear Line terminal key.
* Data communications interference has produced garbled characters
on the screen
Whenever any of these conditions occur, HP EDIT preserves the original
text even though it appears that the contents of the line have been
written over.
This command functions similarly to the Refresh Screen command, except
that the Refresh Line command redisplays a single line, rather than the
entire screen.
Procedure
To redisplay a line:
1. Move the cursor anywhere on the line to be redisplayed.
2. Press ESC, then press the * key. HP EDIT redisplays the line in
its previous state before visible alteration.
