ARPUS/ce, Version 2.6.2 (03/10/05) (SCCS 1.7) _______________________________________________________________________________ wc [-a | -q | -s | -w | -y ] "window close" DESCRIPTION: 'wc' is used to close an edit or ceterm window. The action taken depends on any options used as well as whether changes have been made since the file was last updated to disk and whether the shell in a ceterm has been exited. Only 1 option may be present. If no options are specified in an edit window, wc will save the file and exit the window. If the window is a ceterm window, an error message will be generated specifying that the shell has not been closed and the pad is still active. -a Turns on autoclose for a ceterm window. If autoclose is on, the window automatically closes when the shell terminates. -q If the file is either in read-only mode or has not been changed since it was last updated to disk (via 'pw' or the autosave function), the file and window are closed. If the file has been changed since last updated to disk, wc prompts you with "File modified; okay to quit? ". If you respond "y" or "yes", wc closes the file WITHOUT keeping changes made since the last update to disk, and the window is closed. If instead you respond "n" or "no", the wc command is canceled. -s Turns off autoclose for a ceterm window. If autoclose is off, the window reverts to an edit window when the shell terminates. -y If you use "-y" and the file has been changed since last updated to disk, wc will not prompt you with "File modified; okay to quit?" but will instead act as if it did present the prompt and you answered yes. That is, the file is exited without saving the data. -f This option tells wc to update the file to disk first if any changes have been made since the last update. This command is equivalent to the command sequence "pw;wc", which is the default definition for the F8 key. In a ceterm window, the shell is terminated and the window is closed. With the -f option, all 'cc' windows for the file are closed. -w This option is similar to -f in that it saves the file contents via pw if any changes are made but it does not save the last window's position and color combination. The window manager pulldown which closes a window causes ce to use -w. With -w, only the current window is affected, 'cc' windows are not closed. In a ceterm window, the shell is terminated.
