System
SPL
• SPL Split Area __________________
SPLITAREA divides an existing Area within the main Text or Work
Space of a file, into two Areas.
iip SPLitArea <___>°
NOTES _____
• When SPLITAREA is issued, an *END OF TEXT AREA* and a *START OF
iip TEXT AREA* line is inserted after the <___>, and the user's
display point is set to the *START OF TEXT AREA* line which is
the top of the next Area (the one after the split point).
• The only way to access the new Area (once it is left) without a
Label, Splice, or Jump into it, is through the Structure Space
(unless the Area is the last one in which case BOTTOM could be
used).
• SPLITAREA and NAREA differ only in that the former splits the
current Area in two, while the latter creates a brand new,
empty Area.
• SPLITAREA is useful when the user wishes to isolate text
already in the file.
