## 69. remark

    [ 'edit' | 'delete' | 'deleteAll' |
      'previous' | 'next' | 'first' | 'last' ]?

Command acting on remarks.

A remark is simply a processing-instruction having "`xxe-remark`" as its target. This processing-instruction is typically used to comment changes, for example when reviewing a document. This processing-instruction is nicely rendered using XXE's built-in CSS stylesheet and also, the Compare tool displays such processing-instruction in a manner which stands out from the other parts of the changes it has detected.

edit

  If a `<?xxe-remark>` is explicitly selected or if the caret is contained in a `<?xxe-remark>`,, display a special dialog box —the remark editor— allowing to edit this processing-instruction.

  Otherwise, display the remark editor in order to create a new remark. This new `<?xxe-remark>` is inserted before the explicit selection if any, or at caret position otherwise.

delete

  Delete explicitly selected `<?xxe-remark>`, if any. Otherwise if the caret is contained in a `<?xxe-remark>`, delete this processing-instruction.

deleteAll

  Delete all `<?xxe-remark>`s.

previous

  Select preceding `<?xxe-remark>` if any.

next

  Select following `<?xxe-remark>` if any.

first

  Select first `<?xxe-remark>` if any.

last

  Select last `<?xxe-remark>` if any.

Examples:

    remark
    remark edit
    remark deleteAll
    remark first
