Word Wrap may be used to automatically place words that would normally overrun the right margin to the left margin of the next line. Word Wrap is used in conjunction with Entry Assist and Change Format. There are three host keys associated with this function:
Entry Assist Mode On/Off (Ctrl + E)
Word Wrap Mode On/Off (Ctrl + W)
Change Format On/Off (Ctrl + F)
The Entry Assist key toggles between Entry Assist mode (also referred to as document mode) and normal mode. The symbol "DOC" appears on the OIA (Operator Information Area) status line to indicate that entry assist mode is active. When active, the Tab, BackTab and NewLine keys operate differently. The Tab and BackTab keys navigate to the next field or tab stop. The NewLine key goes to the left margin on the next line or to the first field.
The Word Wrap key, that can only be used when entry assist mode is active, toggles between Word Wrap mode and normal mode. The symbol "WW" appears on the OIA status line to indicate that Word Wrap mode is active. When active, any word being typed that would overrun the right margin is placed at the left margin of the next line, if possible.
The Change Format key, that can only be used when entry assist mode is active, provides the ability to set the left and right margin, reset the margins, set the bell margin position, and set and clear tab positions. While in Change Format mode, the following keys will allow you to set tab and margin controls:
< Sets the left margin at current cursor position
> Sets the right margin at current cursor position
B Sets the bell margin at current cursor position
R Resets all margins to defaults
<- (Left Arrow) moves cursor to the left
-> (Right Arrow) moves cursor to the right
T Toggles tab on/off at current cursor position
C Clears all tab position.
Note: Word Wrap is supported only for TN3270 and TN5250 emulation. This Word Wrap feature should not be confused with the Block Paste mode Word Wrap option.
