As of LSE V2, you can also use callable-LSE with MAIL (I'm using it right now as a matter of fact :-) by defining MAIL$EDIT as CALLABLE_LSE. = Frank J.

To use TPU as the editor, define > MAIL$EDIT to be CALLABLE_TPU. I am one of those people who dont use a DEC supplied editor. I use GNUemacs for large stuff and microemacs to edit short things. In my login.com I have the following line $ define/nolog mail$edit sys$login:maileditor.com and the file maileditor.com looks like: $ DEFINE/USER/NOLOG SYS$INPUT 'F$TRNLNM("SYS$OUTPUT")' $ uemacs 'p1 'p2 'p3 'p4 $exit This way ... when I send/edit I get microemacs (uemacs) as my editor. Save it, and exit the editor and everything works wonderfuly. /Bob -- mende@rutgers.edu {...}!rutgers!mende mende@zodiac.bitnet Did I SELL OUT yet??
