[net.unix-wizards] KED editor request

kiely@hscfvax.UUCP (01/13/84)

We am looking for a clone of the DEC keypad editor "KED" that will run
on a machine running UNIX.  Does anyone know if such a thing exists and
if so where we can get it.



        DEC is a trademark of Digital Equipment Corporation.
        UNIX is a trademark of Bell Laboratories.

I don't know if this will help, but the MIT editor TED has hooks to allow
pfk's to do arbitrary things. You get to define macros that start with
escape followed by strings of funny characters (things sent by z19's and
vt100's) to be arbitrary command sequences. Other than that, it's close
to EMACS.

You can get it from the MIT CSRG (more exact information available upon
request), for $50 or thereabouts. It comes as part of the CLU compiler
system for VAXEN.
