Oracle SQL*Plus: The Definitve Guide errata
by Jonathan Gennick


Following are the changes made in the 9/99 reprint:


(51) The first text paragraph on the page read:

        Notice that line 4 has been replaced by the text that was
        typed after the numeral 4 on the first line of this example.
        Notice, too, that the leading spaces used to indent AND were
        lost. That's because when you type a new line of text as an
        argument to a command, SQL*Plus takes the first non-blank
        character as the start of that line. That's usually not much
        of an issue. If you are line editing, you are just trying to
        get the command to run.


It now reads as follows:

        Notice that line 4 has been replaced by
        the text that was typed after the numeral
        4 on the first line of this example. You can
        replace any line in this way. If you want to preserve
        the indenting, you can insert extra spaces following
        the line number.


{448} Changed "delete" to "list" in the referenced text.
