Text Editor Line Commands

The left-most portion of the Program Editor window includes a numbered field. This field is where you enter
line commands. These commands are denoted by one or more letters, and can move, copy, delete, justify, or
insert lines.
Some common line commands include

M - moves a line of text

C - copies a line of text

D - deletes a line of text

I - inserts a line of text.

When you use some line commands, you also need to specify a location. For example, if you type an M in the
numbered field for a line in the Program Editor, then you must specify where you want the line of text to be
moved. You can use the A (after) and B (before) line commands to specify a location.
If you type an A in the numbered field for a line, then the line of text that you want to move will be placed after
the line marked with an A after you press the ENTER or RETURN key. If you type a B in the numbered field for
a line, then the line of text that you want to move will be placed before the line marked with a B after you press
the ENTER or RETURN key.
