Selecting Objects And Entering Commands; Opening Office Objects - AT&T Unix Owner's Manual

Selecting Objects and Entering Commands
For example, suppose you have the following objects
displayed in a folder:
Financial
forms
In this example, if you type >f, the highlight moves
immediately to forms.
Canceling a Selection
When you have selected several objects, you can cancel
any of the selections.
To cancel the selection of one object at a time:
o Point to each selected object, and press <B3>
or <Mark>.
You can cancel the selection of all selected objects in
two ways:
o Press <Cancl>.
o Point to the [X] icon at the bottom of the
window and press <Bl>. (Note that this
method also closes the window.)
Opening Office Objects
When you open an object, its contents are displayed in
a window. Because the Open command is used frequently,
it is the default command for the Office objects, file
folders, and most files. The default command is
performed when you press the Enter key if you do not
specify a command to use.
You can open Administration, the Clipboard, the
Filecabinet, Preferences, Printers, the Telephone, and
the Wastebasket simply by selecting the object you want
to open and pressing the Enter key or the Bl mouse
button.
You can also open file folders and files by selecting
them and pressing the Enter key or the Bl mouse button.
See "Using Office Commands" in this section for more
information on opening objects.
