LIST MAKE <new_list> OF <text_file> creates a list from a given text text file as a sequence of edit files. For example, if <new_list> is ABC, edit files ABC1,ABC2,ABC3,... will be created as well as a text file ABC.LST giving the names of the edit files. By default the sizes of the edit fields correspond to REDIM 300,100,100. This is changed by the specification LISTDIM=<#_lines>,<#_columns>,<max_#_shadow_lines>. LIST MAKE <new_list> OF #<texts> #<texts> pathname_of_text_file_1 pathname_of_text_file_2 ... END does the same job from a series of text files. L = More information on LIST operations
