Editing a Checked-Out File

This section covers the process of checking out a file that is under SCCS control and displaying it in an editor window. The Edit menu item allows you to do this in either of the following ways:

  1. To edit a file after checking it out, select the checked-out file in the Versioning window and choose File > Edit.

  1. To check out a file and display it in an editor window, choose Commands > Check Out and Edit.

    The default is for the file to be brought up in a cmdtool window running vi. For instructions on selecting an editor, see "Changing Versioning Properties".
