- Short: An commandline interface for CED
- Author: petr.cisar@ericsson.cz
- Uploader: petr.cisar@ericsson.cz
- Version: 1.2
- Type: text/edit
- Requires: ss.library
-
- This program serves as an interface for the programs which call an text editor
- via shell (it concerns especially the programs ported from UNIX).
- EditCEDFile loads the file to (already running) CED, and waits until the user
- pushes <F1>. Then it considers the editations to be done and terminates.
-
- The <F1> stuff is done by saving the original F-keys configuration to
- a temporary file and loading it back on exit, so the original setup
- is not changed.
-
- It supports multiuser and according to $CONSOLE and $GLOBTASK
- variables it can decide whether it can start just CED or some
- console-based editor (CED is not suitable for telnet users :-) ).
- To bypass this function, you can use the FORCELOCAL switch.
-
- I am aware that this program can be replaced with an ARexx script,
- but this one is quite faster.
