Hi
As a dummy my question is very simple. When typing cw I've read (many times) that a '$' should appear at the end of the word I'm about to change. However, it doesn't, and in my case the word is instantly deleted and so ready to be changed!
Can somebody tell me why this is, or maybe I... (4 Replies)

addbib
addbib(1) General Commands Manual addbib(1)
Name
addbib - create or extend bibliographic database
Syntax
addbib [-p promptfile] [-a] database
Description
When this program starts up, answering ``y'' to the initial ``Instructions?'' prompt yields directions; typing ``n'' or RETURN skips them.
The command then prompts for various bibliographic fields, reads responses from the terminal, and sends output records to a database. A
null response (just RETURN) means to leave out that field. A minus sign (-) means to go back to the previous field. A trailing backslash
allows a field to be continued on the next line. The repeating ``Continue?'' prompt allows the user either to resume by typing ``y'' or
RETURN, to quit the current session by typing ``n'' or ``q'', or to edit the database with any system editor ( ).
Options
-a Suppresses prompting for an abstract. Asking for an abstract is the default. Abstracts are ended with a CTRL/D.
-p Causes use of a new prompting skeleton, defined in promptfile. This file should contain prompt strings, a tab, and the key-letters to
be written to the database.
The most common key-letters and their meanings are given below. The insulates you from these key-letters, since it gives you prompts in
English. However, if you edit the bibliography file later, you need this information.
%A Author's name
%B Book containing article referenced
%C City (place of publication)
%D Date of publication
%E Editor of book containing article referenced
%F Footnote number or label (supplied by refer)
%G Government order number
%H Header commentary, printed before reference
%I Issuer (publisher)
%J Journal containing article
%K Keywords to use in locating reference
%L Label field used by -k option of refer
%M Bell Labs Memorandum (undefined)
%N Number within volume
%O Other commentary, printed at end of reference
%P Page number(s)
%Q Corporate or Foreign Author (unreversed)
%R Report, paper, or thesis (unpublished)
%S Series title
%T Title of article or book
%V Volume number
%X Abstract - used by roffbib, not by refer
%Y,Z ignored by refer
Except for `A', each field should be given once. Only relevant fields should be supplied. An example is:
%A Bill Tuthill
%T Refer - A Bibliography System
%I Computing Services
%C Berkeley
%D 1982
%O UNX 4.3.5.
