Several commands simply display status information. This is similar to the information displayed by clicking HELP then Status display.

Version / Ver: Display VEDIT's version number.
Name_Dir / ND: Display the current drive and directory.
Name_Read / NR: Display the name of the input (read) file.
Name_Write / NW: Display the name of the output (write) file.
Name_File / NF: Display the input and output file names.
Mem_Status / MSTAT: Display the number of bytes free in the current edit buffer, the number of bytes used, and the total number of bytes in all text registers.
Date: Display the current system date.
Time: Display the current system time.
Reg_Status / RSTAT: Display the total number of bytes in all text registers and the number of bytes in each text register.

vEdit has many other commands that return a numeric value for useful status information. For example, File_Size( ) returns the size of the current file; Cur_Line( ) returns the line number of the edit position (cursor).

.File_Size / .FSIZE: Display the size of the current file.
.Disk_Free / .DKF: Display the amount of free disk space.
.Buf_Total / .BT: Display the number of edit buffers (files) currently open.
