Zip
Set Zip characters
(Initially: []@{} )
The Set Zip command changes the special abbreviation keys provided in Qedit. The Zip list of characters is positional and without quotes:
| 1st character | FIRST | [ is the default |
| 2nd character | LAST | ] is the default |
| 3rd character | ALL | @ is the default |
| 4th character | Left | { is the default (see Add) |
| 5th character | Right | } is the default (see Add) |
| 6th character | auto-mod | OFF by default (inactive) |
Therefore, the default Zip list is: []@{}. The only way to reset ZIP to its default value is to re-enter these codes in a Set Zip command.
Auto-Modify in Add. The “auto-modify” character (the 6th one) is disabled by default. If you do Set Zip []@{}_ to specify “_” as the “auto-mod” character, whenever you end a command line, or a new text line in Add, with an underline, Qedit puts you into Modify on that line.
For example, Set Zip [%:~+? specifies [ for FIRST, % for LAST, : for ALL, ~ for shift-left, + for shift-right, and ? for auto-modify. You may specify any special characters you like for these functions, but each must be unique and must not conflict with the other characters configured in Qedit (e.g., TAB, $).
