        !             2: When you are typing after an 'append' command,
        !             3: the editor is no longer listening for its ordinary commands.
        !             4: Between 'a' and '.' none of your usual 'p', 'w', or 'q'

        !             6: editor wake up is to type '.' alone on a line.  So to type in
        !             7: text, then print it, you must go through a sequence like
        !             8:   ex file

        !            13:   wq
        !            14: and you must not type the "1,$p" until you have typed
        !            15: the '.'.  Do you understand?  Will the sequence
        !            16:   ex junk
        !            17:   a

        !            21:   wq
        !            22: print the number of the last line typed in?  If you don't
        !            23: know, try it.  Then type 'yes' or 'no'.
