There is 'z' (part of the Manx C package). However I wouldn't buy manx just for that. There a set of macros for both dme and uedit. OR there is a port of STEVIE (a fairly good vi-clone recently posted to one of the sources newsgroups) that me and a friend are doing. Hmm... Is anyone else working on porting STEVIE to the Amiga ? If so, could you email me and let me know ? Now for the subject line : how does one get raw input from the current CLI window ? By raw I mean that the user doesn't have to press return before STEVIE can see what was typed. I know, we can open another CLI window with this property, but we want to use the current window. The above mentioned 'z' does this, so we know it is possible. Any help will be appreciated, Advance Thanx, fred grwalter@watcgl.uwaterloo.ca (Canadian domain) grwalter@watcgl.waterloo.edu (US Internet, including CSNET) grwalter@watcgl.waterloo.cdn (CDNnet and some European nets) watmath!watcgl!grwalter (UUCP) uunet!watmath!watcgl!grwalter (another UUCP alternative) grwalter%watcgl.waterloo.edu@csnet-relay.arpa (ARPA)
