Function-Key Commands
SAS under OpenVMS provides many windowing environment commands in addition to those that are documented in the Base SAS section in the online SAS Help and Documentation. These host-specific commands are described in Host-Specific Windowing Commands Under OpenVMS.
Before you use these commands, be aware of several special considerations:
-
Each of these commands is the only definition for a function key; that is, the command cannot be combined with any other command. For example, the following is a valid key definition:
The following key definitions are not valid:PF1 PF1 PF2 -
You cannot specify any of these commands in the DM statement.
-
You cannot enter any of these commands on a command line except where noted in the description.
If you use one of these commands incorrectly, you receive a message that the given use is not supported.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| CHINSERT | Toggles insert mode. |
| CURSORDOWN | Moves the cursor down. |
| CURSORLEFT | Moves the cursor left. |
| CURSORRIGHT | Moves the cursor right. |
| CURSORUP | Moves the cursor up. |
| DELCHAR | Deletes the character at the cursor location. |
| DELLINE | Deletes all characters on the current line. |
| DELPCHAR | Deletes the character to the left of the cursor. |
| DELTOEOL | Deletes all characters to the end of the line. |
| DELWORD | Deletes the word under the cursor. |
| KP_APPLICATION | See KP_NUMERIC. |
| KP_NUMERIC | Puts the application keypad into numeric mode. Numeric mode is convenient to use in data entry where numbers are involved. The KP_APPLICATION command returns the keypad to application mode, so that the keypad keys resume their functionality listed in the KEYS window. You can issue this command from the command line. |
| MOVEBOL | Moves to the beginning of the line. |
| MOVEEOL | Moves to the end of the line. |
| NEWLINE | If there is a command on the command line, NEWLINE executes it; otherwise, the cursor moves to the beginning of the next line (equivalent to a carriage return). |
| NEXTFIELD | Moves to the next field. This command does not move the cursor from the command line; use the HOME (CTRL-F) command to move from the command line. |
| NEXTWORD | Moves to the next word. |
| PREVFIELD | Moves to the previous field. This command does not move the cursor from the command line; use the HOME (CTRL-F) command to move from the command line. |
| PREVWORD | Moves to the previous word. |
