ActilinoOperation of the ActilinoPage 625.2.14.3 Backward Search (SPC+1 2 4 7 = Chord F)With [SPC+1 2 4 7] (Chord F) you can initiate a backward search through the text towardsthe beginning of the file. The procedures are the same as for a forward search. When thesearch string has been found, the cursor will be located at the first character position of thesearch string. In both types of searches described above, you can even change the directionof the search during the ongoing search by entering the appropriate command after beingplaced on the search string.5.2.15 Replace (SPC+1 2 3 5 = Chord r)If you want to search and replace a term, enter the command [SPC+1 2 3 5] (Chord r). Justas in a buffered search, you will be asked to enter a search term. The message 'Replace:'appears on the Actilino. Enter the search term. By pressing [TRC], you indicate that youhave finished entering the search string and the message 'Replace x with:' appearsinstead, (x is the previously entered search string). Type in the text with which you want toreplace the search term. Again, as in a search, pressing [TRC] initiates the replacingprocedure. When the first occurrence of the search string has been found, you will bepositioned at that place in the text. You now have the following options:• Enter [Y] to replace the search string with the replacement text.• If you enter [n], you will move on to the next occurrence of the search string and thepreviously found text will not be replaced.• If you enter [g] for global replace, the found and all subsequent occurrences of thesearch term will automatically be replaced without a prompt. During this procedure,the message 'Replacing, please wait...' is displayed. When the Editor has reachedthe end of the file, it indicates how many occurrences of the search string werereplaced. The message 'Replaced n occurrences' appears, where n is the numberof occurrences of the search term that were replaced.When replacing the setting of the option “Find Exact” (see Section 5.2.24.9) has noinfluence. You have to enter the exact expression for the replace function.Replacing is only possible in forward direction, from the cursor position towards the end ofthe file.5.2.16 Opening Additional FilesMore than one file can be open within the Editor at the same time. There are two methodsavailable for opening a file from within the Editor:1. Within edit mode: The file can be edited after it is opened.2.

The Actilinowill show: 'Open file:'.Alternatively, you can open a file in read-only mode with [SPC+1 3 5 7] (Chord O).This file cannot be modified. This is indicated by the prompt 'View file:'.2. Enter the name of the file to be opened in the input field. Please remember that thefile name must be entered exactly as it is stored on the Actilino, otherwise the file isnot found and cannot be opened.3.
