From 4b266c9616f4eb359be71c44b9b2fa3373265bb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robin Haberkorn Date: Sat, 24 May 2025 01:31:22 +0300 Subject: new string building construct ^P disables all further string building magic * Now, `I^P` can replace `EI`. EI is therefore now free to be repurposed as the new "mung file" command for improved TECO-11 compatibility. * On the downside when inserting large blocks of TECO code, you will have to write something like `@I{^P !...! }` * The construct is also useful when searching for carets as in `S^P^Q^`. --- doc/sciteco.7.template | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) (limited to 'doc') diff --git a/doc/sciteco.7.template b/doc/sciteco.7.template index 7c49e07..51a4da2 100644 --- a/doc/sciteco.7.template +++ b/doc/sciteco.7.template @@ -1787,6 +1787,12 @@ character and their case is insignificant.
