- ;; PROGRAM: VDEPTCH3.ZEX
- ;; AUTHOR: Fred Haines
- ;; DATE: August 30, 1987
- ;; PURPOSE: patch Eric Meyer's VDE v2.61 to install CTRL-V as down arrow key
- ;; and CTRL-J as INSERT mode toggle.
-
- ;; Version 3 - August 30, 1987
- ;; adjusts the addresses to be poked to v2.61. This patch works onlyáì
- ;; on v2.61. Use VDEPTCH2.ZEX for v2.6. áì
-
- ;; Version 2 - August 18, 1987
- ;; corrects an error in VDEPTCH which led to bad behavior by the macro keys,
- ;; ESC-n sequences, if the key was not programmed. If you installed this
- ;; patch from VDEPTCH, you can correct the error by changing the byte at
- ;; 062Eh from 16h to 0Ah.

- ;; Video Display Editor v2.6 is copyrighted by its author, Eric Meyer, and,

- ;; author, it may not be distributed in patched form. You may patch your
- ;; own copy of the program as you like, but please respect the author's

-
- ;; Many popular terminals use a CTRL-V for the down arrow key instead of the
- ;; more common CTRL-J. While it is possible to specify a CTRL-V as the down
- ;; arrow key when installing your terminal for VDE v2.6 with VINST v2.6,
- ;; this interferes with VDE's use of CTRL-V to toggle INSERT mode on and
- ;; off. Patching the following three bytes solves the problem, changing CTRL-
- ;; V to the down arrow and CTRL-J to the INSERT mode toggle.
-
- ;; To install this patch - if you are running a Z System, put VDE.COM and
- ;; ZEX.COM somewhere in the patch and issue this command:
-
- ;; ZEX VDEPTCH3
-
- ;; If you are not using a Z System, you can use EDIT, PATCH, EDFILE, or any
- ;; standard patcher to change the three bytes shown below in the poke
- ;; statements.
