I was curious if anyone famaliar with the DEC world was aware of an editor along the lines of EDT being available for the ST. I'm sure EDT is not in the public domain but I was curious if there are any clones out there. Although I have never used EMAC, I've been told that you can make it look practically like any other editor available, does anyone know if this is true and how well it works??

This is similar to EDT in that the keypad is mapped the same. But there are differences. I use it on occasion and it works fairly well. If you are using lots of the more advanced EDT functions (define key, etc.) I don't beleive they are in SEDT but there are equivalent commands. Bob Erkamp

There's an editor called 'SEDT' that runs on the Atari ST and the IBM PC (VAXen too, but...) that is very similar to EDT (the keypad is identical). The command language has more features than EDT does, and there's no line mode (but who wants that?). You can find it in the Atari archive at UMich (nee Terminator) under 'STEDT'. - hbm -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Henry B.
