PCNAV

Added November 2011

The typical PC interpretation of the HOME/END keys is supported via the switch PCNAV = TRUE. When enabled, the HOME (^^) and END (^E) keys go to the start and end of the current line, rather than the start and end of the file, as they do in the traditional VUE command set. This difference has been a long-standing irritation to people accustomed to using typical PC editors.

To go to the start or end of the file when PCNAV=TRUE, the following new extended key commands have been implemented:

Key Combo

Standard VUX Translation

Function

CTRL+_ HOME

^_^^

start of file

CTRL+_ END

^_^E

end of file
