Built-In Editor

When you are composing an outbound message with the builtin built-in editor, it prompts you for text lines with an empty line. Enter a period (.) to end the message and continue with the Send Menu.

Built-in editor commands are lines that begin with an escape character, de®ned by the escape string vari- able. The default escape character is tilde (Ä).

Note: Some remote login programs use tilde as their default escape character when it is the ®rst character on a line. (You can tell, because the tilde does not print.) Usually, the tilde is transmitted when you enter a second character that is not recognized by the program or when you enter a second tilde. See the program documentation for further information.

The built-in editor commands are:

 

 

~! [command]

Execute the shell command, if one is given (as in Ä!ls), or start an interactive

 

shell, using the shell de®ned by the shell string variable.

 

~< command

Execute the shell command and place the output of the command into the editor

 

buffer. For example, "Ä< who" inserts the output of the who command in your

 

message.

 

 

~?

Print a brief help menu.

 

~Ä

Start a line with a single tilde (Ä) character.

 

~b

Prompt for changes to the Blind-Carbon-Copy (Bcc:) list.

 

~c

Prompt for changes to the Carbon-Copy (Cc:) list.

 

~e

Invoke the editor de®ned for the easyeditor string variable on the message,

 

if possible.

 

 

~f [options]

Add the speci®ed list of messages or the current message. This uses readmail

 

which means that all readmail options are available (see readmail(1)).

~h

Prompt for changes to all the available headers (To:, Cc:, Bcc:, and Sub-

 

ject:).

 

 

~m [options]

Same as Äf, but each line is pre®xed with the current pre®x. See the prefix

 

string variable.

 

 

~o

Prompt for the name of an editor to use on the message.

 

~p

Print out the message as typed in so far.
