| Action |
Selects all items in the target window.

True

| Examples |
editmenu.selectAll () » true
|
| Notes |
Performs the same action as choosing the Select All command from the Frontier Edit menu. The action applies to the Frontier environment only and depends on what kind of window is frontmost as well as what, if anything, is selected at the time. If the frontmost window is a word processing text window, the entire contents of the window are selected, regardless of the prior selection or cursor position. If the frontmost window is an outline, only the line on which the cursor is positioned is selected. If the frontmost window is a table, and the cursor is in a cell, the contents of that cell are selected. If an entire row has been selected previously, the contents of the Name cell are selected.
