Original request:
I have several old VMS users who can not tolerate the 'vi' editor.
Does anyone know of a shareware version of the famous VMS 'edt' editor.
I tried archie by searching for 'edt' and 'sedt' but got hundreds of
other files that matched but were not what I wanted. A simple curses
based version would be great since we use several different types of
serial line terminals.
Thanks, and yes I will summarize.
Solutions:
1) emacs version 19.2???, it has a VMS EDT editor emulation.
prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu
2) tput-edt emulator with emacs.
3) sedt is available on the DEC OSF/1 freeware CD.
Other possible solutions.
1) A mail package called 'pine' has a simple editor called 'pico'.
2) An editor called 'jed' from amy.tch.harvard.edu.
Special thanks to all who replied, there were too many to mention individually.
