1. Overwriting in Edita

Hello everybody,

How does one change overwrite in Edita

For example you start with "xyz" in the editor.

Place the cursor between the x and y and type the letter a.

One way results in xayz the other way results in xaz.

I don’t know what to call these two methods?

How do you change them in Edita?

Thank you in advance,
Don Cole

That's correct. The status bar (if visible) should show it toggling
between the normal INS (insert) and OVR (overstrike) modes.
On a related note, also see the lower right hand corner of
Options/Edit. There are seven checkboxes which control the automatic
return to INS mode - I have them all checked.

Regards,
Pete

Hello Pete,

And thank you. Did you get the email opf my ini file?
I remmed out these 2 lines
--  addTool("Database Viewer:tedb")
--  addTool("Verify edita.edb:vedb")
and still get repeats of those two items in the Tools menu.

Shoudn't 

procedure addTool(sequence tool)
    if not find(tool,isToolSet) then
        isToolSet=append(isToolSet,tool)
    end if
end procedure

Take care of that?

Yes: http://www.listfilter.com/EUforum/m9335.html

Far as I know apparently no-one else got this message either or tried
the steps I asked.
