The
OTHER
buffer allows you to edit a second file
in
the same way as the main
buffer.
It
is
possible to display both the main and the
OTHER
text buffers
by
splitting the
screen into two windows using the
WINDOW
command, then typing 0 to display
the

one window. In this case, switching from one window to the other
results
in
switching from one text buffer to the other.

of

is
common to allow moving text between
partitions.
Press 0 to exit the
OTHER
buffer and return to the main buffer.
