At the moment this works for VMS (but TPU is a lot better), and on CPM68K (omni-byte) boards. The source can be re-compiled to work on MSDOS (IBM) and with a little work (which I shall probably be doing in the near future) ATARI 520. So if you need an EDT type editor for your system see me. Jim. Following is a preliminary DOC file for this editor. Skip if you are not interested. EDMAC uses EDT keypad commands, just like EDT except for the following:- No help Key. No page command (Keypad 7). - search for ^L instead. No command (Gold Keypad 7). - use emacs commands. No fill (Gold Keypad 8). - use ^X F to set wrap column No replace (Gold Keypad 9). Additional keypad functions:- Gold I - Splits screen in two and reads in a file to upper window. Gold W - Toggles between split screen and full screen. Gold UP - Goes into included window. Gold DOWN - Goes into main window. Gold L - starts a learn sequence. Gold R - terminates a learn sequence. PF2 - executes the learned sequence. Gold = - show cursor position. Gold ! - spawn command (VMS only). Gold S - spawn cli (VMS only). The EMACS key sequences retained are:- WINDOW CONTROL ^X 1 display only current window ^X 2 split current window (multiple window are permitted) ^X N move to Next window ^X P move to Previous window ^X Z enlarge current window by one or repeat count lines (^U) ^X ^Z reduce current window by one or repeat count lines (^U) ^X ^N scroll current window up one or by repeat count lines (^U) ^X ^P scroll current window down one or by repeat count lines (^U) FILE CONTROL ^Z save file in current buffer and exit ^X ^C Exit without saving buffers. ^X ^R Read a file into current buffer ^X ^S Save current buffer into its file ^X ^V Visit a file. Read file and display in current window ^X ^W Write buffer to file ^X ^F changes current buffer's filename to argument BUFFER CONTROL ^X B prompt for new Buffer ^X ^B show active Buffers ^X ^K Kill a buffer DELETING ^X ^O Kill surrounding blank lines ^X ^K Kill a buffer CASE CONTROLC Capitalize word L Lowercase next word U Uppercase next word ^X ^L Lowercase selected region ^X ^U Uppercase selected region MISC TAB tabs to set tab, to set tab do GOLD TAB, where arg is new tab stop. ^G abort any command in progress ^T Transpose characters ! move current line to repeat count lines from top of window (???) W Copy select range to paste buffer, do not cut. ^X ^X swap mark with cursor position ^X F Set Fill column.
