JBLEDIT.SEQ The file that contains the source code.
LEDIT is a string/command line editor with the same line
editing command set as the popular MS-DOS PD/Shareware command
line editor DOSEDIT. It can be used as a string/line editor for
your applications or as a replacement for FORTH's EXPECT.
LEDIT uses a special set of the keys on the IBM PC keyboard
to allow you to edit a Forth command/string you are entering or one
of the previous commands that you have entered. It keeps a command
stack of the last 256 characters of commands that you have entered and
you can scroll back and forth through this stack. It also allows you
to edit the current command being displayed. NOTE: 1 or 2 character
commands are not saved.
Commands that are the same as DOSEDIT
PGUP Scrolls backward through the command stack.
PGDN Scrolls forward through the command stack.
UP arrow selects the next line up
DOWN arrow selects the next lines down
ESC Clears the command line.
LEFT arrow Moves the cursor left one position.
RIGHT arrow Moves the cursor right one position.
HOME Moves the cursor to the beginning of the command line.
END Moves the cursor to the end of the command line.
INS Toggles the insert function.
DEL Deletes the character under the cursor.
CTRL-left arrow Moves the cursor left a word at a time.
CTRL-right arrow Moves the cursor right a word at a time.
CTRL-HOME Erases from the beginning of the line to the cursor.
CTRL-END Erases from the cursor to the end of the line.
CTRL-PGUP Erases the command stack.
CTRL-PGDN Erases the displayed entry from the command stack.
BACKSPACE Remains unchanged.
Additional Commands Not Included in DOSEDIT
TAB Tab forward 5 positions.
CTRL-L Clear screen and redisplay current line at top.
CTRL-Q Jump to first occurance of next character entered.
CTRL-S Same as left arrow.
CTRL-D Same as right arrow.
CTRL-T Delete word cursor is on.
CTRL-I Same as TAB
CTRL-U Delete entire line (same as ESC).
CTRL-X Delete to end of line (same as CTRL-END)
ALT-D Drag cursor character forward.
ALT-S Drag cursor character backward.
There may be a few I forgot to document, can you find them?
The function keys F1-F6 no longer have assigned functions.
Tutorial:
After starting F-PC enter the following at the Forth ok prompt
FLOAD JWLEDIT.SEQ <enter> ok
NEW-EXPECT <enter> ok
.( HELLO ) <enter>
.( WORLD ) <enter>
.( IT'S ME ) <enter>
Now use the PgUp key to see the last command .( IT'S ME). Again
use the up PgUp key to see the preceding command .( WORLD). Now
press enter to execute that command. Then press the PgDn key to
see the following command .( IT'S ME). Press either the PgUp or PgDn
keys several times to see how the commands wrap around. Use the
Esc key to clear the command line. Enter new commands and use the
control keys defined above to become familiar with all the functions.
Use the Up-arrow and Down-arrow keys to pull previously entered text from
the screen above and below you current line. Use the editing commands
to edit the line pulled back and press <enter> to execute the line.
Press Up-arrow and Down-arrow several times to see how the lines wrap.
Finally, to turn off LEDIT type:
OLD-EXPECT <enter> ok
Good Luck.
