EVE EVE — VMS 5.5

 EVE

 EVE (Extensible VAX Editor) is a general-purpose text editor, created with
 TPU.  Using EVE you can---

    o  Create or edit one or more files in an editing session
    o  Use multiple buffers and windows, and resize the windows
    o  Define keys, create learn sequences, and set EDT or WPS keypad
    o  Select boxes or linear ranges for cut-and-paste or other edits
    o  Use either VMS- or ULTRIX-style wildcards to search text
    o  Execute DCL commands, such as DIRECTORY, from within the editor
    o  Compile and execute TPU procedures to extend EVE
    o  Add or delete menu items for the DECwindows interface
    o  Save your customizations for future sessions
    o  Use initialization files at startup or during a session
    o  Recover your text in case of a system failure

 EVE runs on DECwindows or character-cell terminals.

 You can use EVE as base on which to build your own TPU application.  The
 EVE source files are available in SYS$EXAMPLES as examples of TPU
 programming and as a kind of run-time library of TPU procedures.
