October 1, 1979 USING FRESS
"T" Version
Consider the string "%THIS TEXT EDITOR IS %%FRESS.%%". Because
the period at the end is considered part of the multi-cap
string, the last word could not be found by typing "L/%%FRESS%%"
would since it does not appear that way in the display. It _____ be
found by typing "L/%%FRESS.%%" or by "L/%%FRESS". In fact, it
would even be found by typing "L/FRESS".
2.2.1.3 Literal Text ____________________
When specifying <text> parameters in commands such as INSERT,
SUBSTITUTE, IBEFORE, and USUBSTITUTE, percent and double percent
signs must be used to indicate upper-case characters exactly as
they are used in Input Mode. Thus to correct a typographical
error which caused the string "%%FRXSS%%" to be inserted in the
file, the user might type
SU/FRXSS/%%FRESS%%
the Actually, the second pair of percent signs is redundant, since ___
multi-cap string is automatically ended _______________________________________ by the carriage return.
2.2.1.4 Correcting Character Case Errors ________________________________________
Often a section of text is entered in the wrong case, either by
neglecting to use the proper version of FRESS or by forgetting
the percent signs to indicate upper-case. In these instances,
CAPITALIZE and UNCAPITALIZE may be used to correct the error.
UNCAPITALIZE can be used to convert an entire file which was
accidentally inputted in upper-case. If the entire file is
specified as <scope>, all characters will flip to lower case
except those appearing after "sentence-ending" punctuation -
periods and (literal) exclamation points.
2.2.1.5 Summary of Rules ________________________
inside 1) When pattern matching, all percent signs included ______ the
desired string to indicate capitalization must be specified in
the pattern. If percent signs are leading or trailing, they
may be omitted.
2) If consecutive LOCATEs for the same pattern are to be done,
the leading percent or double percent signs should be included
in the pattern to ensure the LOCATEs will find separate
instances.
