Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Edit menu, Set Anchor command («savecur»)
 
     Function  ◄Savecur►
 
     Choose Set Anchor to save the cursor position for later use with
     the Select To Anchor command or the Selcur («selcur») and Restcur
     («restcur») functions.
     See: Restcur, Selcur, ◄Edit menu, Select To Anchor►
 
     To select text with the anchor commands:
 
       1. Move the cursor to the start of the text you want to select.
 
       2. Choose Set Anchor, or execute the Savecur function («savecur»).
 
       3. Move the cursor to the end of the text you want to select.
 
       4. Choose Select To Anchor, or execute the Selcur function
          («selcur»).
 
     The selection is a stream, box, or line selection according to the
     current selection mode. To change the type of selection, use the
     Stream Mode, Box Mode, or Line Mode commands on the Edit menu, or
     the Selmode function («selmode»).
