4189.0. "EVE_WPS Replace gives Too many arguments" by FOLDRS::HOWARD (Yes it is) Fri May 20 1994 02:12

    I am using EVE_WPS as my editor and when I try to use Gold ', which is 
    REPLACE, I get the TPU error:
    
    Too many arguments
    
    I have data in the paste buffer, and I have selected text.  Am I the
    only one that ever tried this, or does the message indicate that the 
    feature was dropped because people couldn't agree on how it should
    work? ;-)
    
    This is V3.0A, an MTS site.

	Ben I just tried it on our system & get the same error - global replace seems to work reasonably well, though. Chele
4189.2	Vague reference to new version	FOLDRS::HOWARD	Yes it is	`Thu May 26 1994 19:54`	7
	It looks like this is a feature, then. Can anybody give me a hint as to whether it needs to be reported? Anybody care to try it on a PFR to save the paperwork if it is already fixed? I am attempting to find a workaround, but TPU seems determined to block me from redefining the Gold apostrophe key. Ben
4189.3	Not fixed - please report it	IOSG::NEWLAND	Richard Newland, IOSG, REO2-G/L2	`Fri May 27 1994 08:56`	4
	It is not fixed in the current V3.1 base level. Please report it. Richard
