[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Any experience with CED or PCED?

rls@ihuxz.UUCP (04/09/87)

I have just recently constructed an IBM PC XT clone, so
I have not followed this newsgroup until recently so I
apologize if this has been discussed before.

I friend just gave me a copy of a public domain, resident
utility called CED (Command EDitor) Version 1.0D, 1985.
CED has some nice features including, the ability to recall
a large number of past commands, easy current command
editing, and a configuration file option that allows for
the definition of synonyms that allow the user to rename
DOS or any other commands to something that may be more to
the user's tastes.

At the back of the manual the author mentions that a
commercial version called PCED will be available in 1986
that will include some nice enhancements including the
ability to remember previous commands between system resets.

I am considering purchasing the commercial version and I
was wondering if anyone out there has any experience with
PCED.
