Hi all, Where can I get documentation on the version of TECO that comes with VMS 5.0? There is a minimal help library inside, but it only talks about the line mode commands.. I tried to do TECO /VTEDIT, and it said the VTEDIT macros couldn't be loaded - is there something else that needs to be done? I've never used TECO before at all, but I've heard people say it's nice (wasn't it what the original Emacs was written in?), and I'd like to give it a try... Thanks for any help! ---------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Tim Russell, Computer Operator | Internet: fritz@fergvax.unl.edu Campus Computing | Bitnet: conslt32@unoma1 University of Nebraska at Omaha | UUCP: uunet!btni!unocss!fritz -- ---------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Tim Russell, Computer Operator | Internet: fritz@fergvax.unl.edu Campus Computing | Bitnet: conslt32@unoma1 University of Nebraska at Omaha | UUCP: uunet!btni!unocss!fritz

The documentation is (still) the classic "PDP-11 TECO User's Guide", Order Number DEC-11-UTECA-B-D. (There may be a slighly more recent version, but that's the only one I have around.) This document MAY have been included in the VMS V5 documentation set; I'm not sure. The set may also include, as release notes or something like that, a summary of changes since the manual was published. The VTEDIT macro is not part of the standard distribution, but last I heard was available from DECUS. If you want, I can send you a copy of a video editing macro I wrote and use; it's a cousin of VTEDIT, but has no documenta- tion beyond the help screens. -- Jerry [Who's glad to see people are still interested in TECO]

I just came back from a DEC V5 Tech Update course. - TECO manual is NOT in the V5 distribution - VTEDIT.TEC is also NOT in the V5 distribution Are there copyright problems or could someone post VTEDIT.TEC? Seems like lots of people (well, TECO hackers anyway) would like this. -- Bob Eager rde@ukc.UUCP ...!mcvax!ukc!rde Phone: +44 227 764000 ext 7589
