|
to BILL WOLFF re: R/WHAT FEATURES IN FULL COMMAN
|
|
|
|
Hmmm, I must have written up FULL in the NEWS, which seems deleted!
|
|
I don't think there are any secrets in it - but you have to type
|
|
FULLW or FULL? to really see what's going on. Interesting kludge - in that
|
|
if you just type "full", you don't really know what's going on! I should
|
|
have the same msg come up for "full" as comes up for "fullw". The only
|
|
undocumented thing is that there's a "fullc", which is for "Christensen",
|
|
since I never went for the Wordstar keys - matter of fact, neither did
|
|
Wordstar! The first Wordstar version patterned itself after WordMaster,
|
|
which used ^H-J-K-L for left, down, up, right. I find that a lot easier,
|
|
since I'm right handed.
|
|
FULL is a full LINE editor, with word fwd & back, beginning & end of line,
|
|
char insert (not "insert mode" unfortunately), delete char, delete to end
|
|
of line, and char search. Makes typing a LOT easier, particularly if you're
|
|
used to WordStar.
|
|
Here's what happened - a "log" of my "session" dinking with fullw:
|
|
>Function:?fullw
|
|
Use FULL? to check assignments
|
|
>Function:?full?
|
|
Assignments are now:
|
|
^B=Front/back, ^A=Word left, ^S=Char left, ^D=Char right, ^F=Word right
|
|
^V=Insert sp., ^G=Del left, ^P=Erase line, ^I=Tab right, ^_=CharSearch
|
|
-----
|
|
Note, one drawback is that if you hit ANY wrong key, it aborts the line.
|
|
Only "C/R" (<enter>) will save the line, as modified.
|
|
Also if you have full on when going into msg entry, then the line editor
|
|
(e;g e;20 to edit line 20) will put you in full-line mode.
|
|
Oh, the ONE undoc'd feature is ^W: repeat. Each ^W multiplies by 4.
|
|
Entering a # multiplies by that #: ^W12# produces: ############
|
|
(However, if such "noise" is routinely put in msgs, I del those msgs ;-)

to WARD CHRISTENSEN re: R/WHAT FEATURES IN FULL COMMAN
|
|

Since I like WordStar commands and I am right handed too, I assume I should
|
|
use FULLW command. If so... what is FULL itself good for? <BW>

to ALL re: C HELP NEEDED
|
|
|
|
I'm looking for some assistance. I'm studying C and I've come across
|
|
something that I can't figure out.
|
|
(I'm doing a sample problem in my Learn C book.)
|
|
I've declared a structure (that works) thus:
|
|
;
|
|
struct student_st{
|
|
char lastname[20];
|
|
char firstname[20];
|
|
int grade;
|
|
}student[30];
|
|
;
|
|
I fill the members (student[x].lastname & .firstname) using gets(...);.
|
|
if I change the structure, (as my book suggests is possible), to this:
|
|
;
|
|
struct student_st{
|
|
char *lastname;
|
|
char *firstname;
|
|
int grade;
|
|
}student[30];
|
|
;
|
|
it should allow more efficient use of string space since member data
|
|
that is less than 20 chars. uses only what's needed.
|
|
Hmmm... Now that I reread this I'm wondering. Can I only do this with
|
|
strings that are predefined? (That is, strings defined at initialization
|
|
time?)
|
|
Only one of my three C books talks about members being pointers.

to PETE CANTELE re: R/C HELP NEEDED
|
|
|
|
I'm short on time for details right now, but your *lastname reserves
|
|
a pointer, as you probably know, but doesn't point it to anything. You have
|
|
to use one of the memory allocation functions in C - check out alloc() or
|
|
I seem to recall malloc() but it is not in the original K&R book.
|
|
The amt of mem you'd alloc is the length of the name you're getting -
|
|
then you'd put the pointer in the structure. It might save a LITTLE space,
|
|
but it depends upon the efficiency of the memory allocation function
|
|
implementation (how many bytes of overhead per allocation request, and
|
|
whether the allocation routine is "granular" at link time - i.e. whether
|
|
if you don't use alloc, you will get it anyway, or if by using it, you
|
|
get it included at link time. If alloc is, say, 512 bytes of code, you
|
|
have to consider that in your overall savings. But this is only an exercise,
|
|
so that isn't a factor. You DO need to get comfy with pointers and mem
|
|
allocation.
|
|
No dup. chars.
