### 5.7 Editing files

There are currently three commands that can be used to find a file (that is, load it into a buffer and start editing it there). These commands work on the line that the cursor is situated at. They always ignore any marked files.

`f`
  Find the file that the cursor points to (`cvs-mode-find-file`). If the cursor points to a directory, run `dired` on that directory; see Dired.
`o`
  Like `f`, but use another window (`cvs-mode-find-file-other-window`).
`A`
  Invoke ‘`add-change-log-entry-other-window`’ to edit a `ChangeLog` file. The `ChangeLog` file will be found in the directory of the file the cursor points to, or in a parent of that directory (`cvs-mode-add-change-log-entry-other-window`).
