BROWSE Browse for an outline or search pattern
Command keys: B or CTRL—X
Command prefix: No
Locations: EXISTING FILE Menu (FILES/EXISTS)
XCHANGE Command Menu (Paragraph Editor)
See also: FILES; EXISTS; XCHANGE
If you give the FILES/EXISTS command (or start up Think—
Tank and choose EXISTS) and you have a hard disk or more than
two floppy disk drives, ThinkTank displays the EXISTING FILE
Menu. If you select BROWSE (command key B), ThinkTank checks
your disk drives and displays, one by one, the names or titles
of the outlines it finds. Press the left and right arrow keys
to move from one outline to another, or ESC to return to the
EXISTING FILE Menu. When you reach the outline you want,
select it by pressing RETURN. You may change data disks at
any time during this process.
When you select XCHANGE/BROWSE (command key CTRL—X) in
the paragraph editor, ThinkTank prompts you for a search pat-
tern and a replacement pattern, then lets you move to each oc-
currence and decide whether to replace it. Occurrences must
match the search pattern by character and case. Press the
left and right arrow keys to move from one occurrence to
another, RETURN to make the replacement, or ESC to cancel or
conclude the search. You can also give the XCHANGE/BROWSE com-
mand by pressing CTRL—X from the Top Level of the paragraph
editor.
