Copying the History List lnt0 a Flle
When you save the contents of your History List in a
file, that file appears as a Standard file in the
Filecabinet. Standard files are ordinary ASCII files;
that is, they do not contain any characters other than
letters, numbers, and spaces. Information in standard
files can be incorporated into files created by other
UNIX PC software products (the AT&T UNIX PC Word
Processor, for example) using copy and paste functions.
You can then use the records from the History List file
in another document or file. Refer to the user guide
for the software product you use for information on how
to copy information from other files.
If you select the Copy list to paste buffer option from
the History Commands menu, you can simply create or
open the file where you want to place the information,
and then use your software product's copy or paste
function to move the information from the paste buffer
to the document. If you move or copy anything else
into the paste buffer before pasting the History List,
the list is erased from the paste buffer.
For more information on opening the Filecabinet, and
folders and files in the Filecabinet, refer to the

UNIX PC Owner's Manual.
