editor.fio
File over existing item.
Syntax
fio item-id fio(file.reference fio(file.reference item-id
Description
files the current item and overwrites, when a duplicate item-id already exists on file.
This form is used when specifying an item-id other than the one originally requested.
Example
ed bp program1<return>
top
.fi program2<return>
'program2' filed.
Any changes made to 'program1' in this example are saved in
'program2' only. No changes are saved to 'program1'.
ed bp program1<return>
top
.fi new.program1<return>
cmnd?
This does not actually mean that the command was invalid. Rather, it means that
the item, 'new.program1', was already on file. It can be overwritten
as follows:
.fio new.program1<return>
'new.program1' filed.
