Attention TPU users... You may want to put the following procedure into your TPU init file... This procedure activates the GOLD O key to toggle on and off the overwrite mode available in the TPU editor. This mode is especially useful when modifying tables which already have some data you want to re-use, and where all the columns are set up already. When in this mode, everything you type is placed directly over what is already there (as opposed to insert mode, which is the normal state). Good Luck, Rusty ! ! Toggle overstrike/insert mode using GOLD O key ! procedure over_it if over_strike = 0 then over_strike := 1; set (overstrike, current_buffer); ! setup overwrite mode else over_strike := 0; set (insert, current_buffer); ! setup insert mode endif; endprocedure over_strike:= 0; define_key('over_it', key_name('O',shift_key)); !setup insert (normal) mode
