Leaping Within A Specified Area; Lcaping Within A Specifled Area - Canon Cat Reference Manual

Leaping
Within
a Specified
Area
Leaping is
normally global,
meaning
you
can leap to any
character anywhere
in
the text. [LOCAL LEAP]
allows you
to
restrict
the
range
of leaping
to one or more documents.
The
restricted
area is
called
the
"local
leap
region."
A
local
leap
region may include any number
of
documents,
but
it
always
has a
document character at its beginning and
its
end.
[LOCAL LEAP]
works like
an ON-OFF switch.
If
[LOCAL LEAP]
is on when you
use
the command,
it
turns
off;
if
ILOCAL LEAP]
is
off, it
tums on.
Boundaries of the Local Leap Region
The
local
leap
region
extends
from
the
first
document
character before
the
highlight
to the
first
document charac-
ter after the
highlight
at
the
time you
give
[LOOAL
LEAP].
To
limit
the cursor to one
document,
you simply place the
cursor inside the document and use [LOCAL LEAP].
The
local leap region
will
extend
from oneend of
the
document
to the other, that is,
from the document chiuacter at
the
beginning of
the
document
to
the
documentcharacterat the
end.
To
limit
the cursor
to
several documents. extend the
highlight before
giving
[LOCAL LEAP].
Any
document
even
partially
touched by
the
highlight
will
become
part
of
the
local
leap
region.
If
you
highlight
the
entire text,
local
leaping and
global leaping
are the same
and
ILOCAL
LEAP]
does
nothing.
LOCAL LEAP and LEARN
If you
are
recording
keystrokes
with
[LEARN], the
first
use
of
[LOCAL LEAP]
always
tums local leaping on
in
docu-
ments touched
by
the
highlight.
If
[LOCAL LEAP] is on, the
highlight
can
extend no
further
than the beginning or end
of
the
local leap region,
even
though
it
might have extended outside the
local region
if
local
leap were
not
on.
Other than
restricting
the range
of
leaping,
[LOCAL LEAP]
has no
effect
on the
Cat's operation. You can type
anything
in the
local region,
including
document characters, and
the
bounds
of
the
local region
will
not change.
