3-3. RANGE A range expression in a command informs EDIT/3000 which part of the WORK file is affected by the command. A range expression can consist of only one position or it can consist of all characters between and including two positions. If two positions are declared as a range, the first position must sequentially precede the second position. A slash separates the two positions. A range list consists of several ranges, separated by commas. For example, 7/10,50,100/200 is a range list that includes lines 7 through 10, line 50, and lines 100 through 200. A null range in a range list is indicated by two commas. If ALL is specified as the range in a command, the range includes all text currently in the WORK file.
