the deleted step.
To cancel a deletion, see "Cancelling Editing Changes," p. 7-5.

inconvenient if the program has been extensively edited.

option menu will be displayed for the step. Add the desired option to the step (see
"Modifying a Program Step with the Options," chapter 6). When the option is complete,

being edited will be displayed again, with the new option appearing in the list.
