Copy Display
(IJ
To print the data displayed on the screen, press the copy display key. This key
performs the same function in communications as it does in APL or BASIC
language operations. During the copy display function, error codes are displayed
on the left side of the status line. These codes are described in the 5100 APL
Reference Manual and the 5100 BASIC Reference Manual.
Tab
["' - --_0
_J
Pressing the tab key during transmit operations transmits a tab character and moves
the cursor to the next tab position if the cursor is not beyond position 132. If
there is no tab position to the right of the cursor, the cursor moves to position 132,
which is always the last tab position. The tab character does not appear in the
message on the display screen or in the extended display. Thus, if a message with
tabs is edited and transmitted, blank characters are transmitted to make the message
appear as if it contained the tabs. Pressing the tab key with the cursor beyond
position 132 has the same effect as pressing the spacebar.
Fast Left
In a scroll operation, pressing the fast left key moves all lines on the display screen
20 positions to the left if an arrow is displayed in position 64 on the status line.
Fast Right
G
In a scroll operation, pressing the fast right key moves all lines on the display screen
20 positions to the right, but it will not move the data beyond position 1.
FastUp [ ]
In a scroll operation, pressing the fast up key moves all lines on the display screen
up 14 lines. This key moves the data up if there is data to be moved to the screen.
Fast Down
In a scroll operation, pressing the fast down key moves all lines on the display
screen down 14 lines. This key moves the data down if there is data to be moved
to the input line.
