[mod.computers.vax] EVE in MAIL

myos@mipos3.UUCP (01/19/87)

  Who knows how to use EVE PLUS(extended TPU) in MAIL utility in VMS?
I read the message how to use TPU but I want to use EVE.
And I have another problem in EVE, I can't use command file when I use
edit/tpu/command=file.name argument.  When I use the argument, EVE exit
editor.

                                          Thanks in advance from Japan,
                                          Masataka Yoshikawa

    Eve Plus can be used in mail if it is a simple command file. The
    first step is to create a process logical TPUSECINI. Define this
    logical to be the complete directory spec for the TPU executable,
    e.g. MY$DISK:[JANDERSON.APL]JIMSECINI.GBL. Now whenever you call
    up EDIT/TPU or "callable_tpu" it will use this section file.
    
    The second step is to define MAIL$EDIT as "CALLABLE_TPU". Now
    whenever you go into edit mode inside of MAIL you will be in your
    favorite flavor of EVE.

    If your command file tells TPU to compile, using the /COMMAND=
    qualifier does the compilation and exits presumably create
    a new section file.
