Undo Sequentially
Purpose
Sequentially cancels previous text-altering commands.
Default Syntax
U
Description
This command cancels a previously executed text-altering command, except
for Undo Last Command. You can use the command to cancel any or all
changes made to a file since the last Keep Text or Text File command was
executed.
If you are currently in Text Entry mode and want to cancel the most
recent text entry command, you must first exit Text Entry mode before you
can execute this command by pressing / and Return.
Command Process
After you execute the command, HP EDIT searches through the record of
text changes in reverse order and cancels previously executed commands.
Each subsequent execution of the command cancels the next command in the
sequence. When the first command in the sequence is cancelled since you
last executed the Keep Text or Text file command, HP EDIT displays No
more changes since last keep on the message line.
Command Cancellation
Since this command is also a text-altering command, you can execute Undo
Last Command to cancel the effect of this command. This feature is
useful if you mistakenly cancelled one of the commands in the command
history sequence.
Procedures
To undo previous commands:
1. Press the U key. HP EDIT cancels the previous text-altering
command.
2. Press the key repeatedly, if necessary, until you have restored
the file to the desired state.
To undo Undo Sequentially:
1. Execute Undo Last Command (u). HP EDIT alters the text to appear
as it was before you entered the last Undo Sequentially command.
