Since a discussion of ^U in MS-DOS has cropped up again, I'm taking this half-time opportunity to post a short patch to CED to make it accept ^U as line kill (i.e. as a synonym for ESC). This patch requires CED 1.0c, available for any BBS... --------------------------begin CEDCUESC.BAT-------------------------- goto begin a 643 call e35 jnz 64c call 68a ret e e20 "* (C) 1985 CJDunford" 0d a e35 cmp al,1b jz e3b cmp al,15 ret n cedcuesc.com w q This file will patch CED 1.0c to use both ^U and ESCape as line kill characters. Above is a debug script which shortens the copyright message a little to make room for code to check for 1b (ESCape) or 15 (^U). You can replace the 15 above with the hex ascii of any key you'd like for line kill... The modified file is written out as CEDCUESC.COM. Make sure you check that it works before copying it over your original CED.COM! -Colin Kelley ..{cbmvax,pyrnj,psuvax1,bpa}!vu-vlsi!colin :begin debug ced.com < cedcuesc.bat --------------------------end CEDCUESC.BAT----------------------------
