Library /sys$common/syshlp/edthelp.hlb CHANGE, SUBCOMMANDS, D  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

 The D nokeypad command deletes a specified number of entities.

 Format: [+|-][count]D[+|-][count][+|-]entity

 If the entity is C, W, BW, EW, L, BL, EL, or NL, the last entity deleted
 by the command is saved in the delete buffer associated with the entity
 and can be restored with the UNDC, UNDW, or UNDL nokeypad command.

 Ex: D15C    Deletes 15 characters in the current direction.
     DSR     Deletes the select range.
     DBR     Deletes to the beginning of the buffer.
