Syntax

<ctrl>+cw

Description

writes the current contents of the cut buffer.

The contents of the cut buffer remain present until the Update processor is exited or another cut is performed.

'<ctrl>+cw' causes the Update processor to prompt with

cut save-id:

at the top left corner of the terminal. Enter either an item-id or a file.reference and item-id.

If only an item-id is entered, the cut buffer contents are saved in the current file. If the file already has an item with the specified item-id, the following prompt displays at the top left corner of the screen :

'cut.id' item exists on file, press 'y' to overwrite:

If any key other than 'y' is typed, the cut text is NOT saved. If 'y' is typed, the item that was on file is overwritten with the cut item.

If the response to the prompt for cut save-id is a file.reference and item-id, the item is written to the designated file with the specified item-id.
