Error and Shell Editor vers. 1.0 -- Paul Pomerleau -- July/23/1987
EASE is a full featured command line editor, history shell and
Error Handler. The command set (unless configured differently)
is much like WordStar's.
EASE is meant to be more Flexible, Faster and Smaller than any
other shell editor. It succeeds in all these.
Flexible: The keystrokes required for any command are
modifiable, so it can emulate the CP/M prompt,
Emacs, Perfect Writer, or whatever editor you use.
Faster: EASE is as fast or faster than any other shell
editor I have tried.
Smaller: By not containing any help messages (This may
qualify as cheating), EASE manages to get
everything done in under 4k. Because an Error
Handler is integral to it, it saves the user from
storing two seperate programs.
Help is available for key strokes and commands by running
EASEHLP.COM. This will produce a help file from the key
definitions within EASE.COM. To change key definitions, modify
the program with ZPATCH, by Steve Cohen, while looking at the Z80
source code. Please note the 'A' will be understood as Control-A
and 'A' + 80h as Meta Key followed by 'A'.
To call up the Shell or Error Handler:
EASE -- Envoke the Error Handler and the Shell
EASE E -- Envoke the Error Handler only
EASE S -- Envoke the Shell only
Paul Pomerleaue Error Handler only
EASE S -- Envoke the Shell only
