EDTHELP.HLB  —  RESEQUENCE
 The RESEQUENCE (abbreviated RES) command assigns new line numbers to a
 range of lines.

 Format: RESEQUENCE [range] [/SEQUENCE:init:incr]

 The specified range of lines must be contiguous. When you do not specify
 a range, all lines in the  current buffer are resequenced.  If the new
 numbers assigned would cause duplicate or nonsequential line numbers,
 EDT will either disallow the command or renumber lines beyond the
 specified range.

 Note that the total count of lines resequenced (which is displayed upon
 completion of the command), may differ from the number of lines
 originally specified in the range, due to the possibility of extra
 renumbering.

1    /SEQUENCE

 The SEQUENCE (abbreviated /SEQ) qualifier specifies the sequence of
 numbers to be assigned.  The init parameter specifies the initial
 number, and incr specifies the number by which the lines are
 incremented.  If you do not use the SEQUENCE qualifier, init and incr
 both default to 1.

 The maximum allowable line number is 2814749767.  If, during
 resequencing, a line number plus 'incr' would exceed this value, that
 line and all remaining lines will be numbered 2814749767.  You should
 correct this immediately by resequencing with a different 'init' and/or
 smaller 'incr'.
