ABSTRACT:
Upon termination of the editing of a document, the editing program saves a pointer in the document which contains the location of the character or control at the cursor location when editing was terminated. Then, when editing of the document is resumed, the operator has the option to return to this saved, last revision point location or instead, to the beginning of the document as has been the case with prior art editors. The pointer to the last edit location is saved with the document itself, on the storage media, so that any operator using any copy of the editor with which the document is compatible, can return on any document to the last revision location regardless of the number of intervening documents which have been edited.
