AM-EDIT is a full featured text editor. Some of the features of the
system are listed below:
* The entire system is written in assembler, so as to provide
the fastest possible response time.
* It is extremely fast when loading files, saving files, and
when searching for text strings.
* It is compact. The program size is under 39K.
* It provides extensive on-screen help.
* It can store over 3 times the amount of data in real memory
as compared to some PC editors.
* It contains a built-in decimal/hex/binary calculator, which
includes logical functions such as AND, OR, XOR, and NOT as
well as the arithmetic functions.
* It contains a built-in ascii chart.
* It allows the user to trace all lines which have been changed,
copied, moved, or added since the edit began.
* It allows each user to have his or her own "User ID", identi-
fying parameters chosen by that user. Parameters include the
screen colors, file backup option, and the number of lines to
scroll when paging through the file.
* It contains a built-in screen blanker and an automatic save
option, and both features can be customized for each user.
* It uses commands rather than "pop-up" menus, and the user is
never required to enter a line number in a command.
* It allows the user to execute commands with a minimal number
of keystrokes. For example, after starting an edit, you can
delete every line in your file with the following keystrokes:
* Type the letter "d" (or "D")
* Press Ctrl-Page Down
* Press the ENTER key
The lines will be deleted in a fraction of a second. You can
then restore all lines that you just deleted by simply press-
ing function key Shift-F4.
