+ Sedt Version 4.0
+
+ Author: Anker Berg-Sonne
+
+ Description
+
+ Sedt is a screen editor written with the goal of
+ providing a common editor across a wide range of operating
+ systems. For ease-of-use Sedt is programmed with a keyboard
+ layout similar to EDT.
+
+ For a complete description of Sedt's features read the
+ documentation in SEDTMAN.EDT.
+
+ Sedt version 4.0 (151) and higher edit numbers is a
+ shareware program and must be properly licensed by paying a
+ license fee.
+
+ Properly licensed users will receive support if they
+ submit a report in writing to the author, Anker Berg-Sonne, 8
+ Middlemost Way, Stow, MA 01775, U.S.A.
+
+
+
+ Distribution Policy
+
+ You may distribute Sedt freely by any means as long as
+ the License Agreement and all other files from the original
+ distribution are included.
+
+ Sedt may not be used beyond a one month trial period
+ without payment of a license fee.
+
+ The license fee includes ONE copy of Sedt for ONE
+ operating system. Additional copies and updates require payment
+ of a fee.
+
+ Sedt is currently available in the following versions:
+
+ MS-DOS for Rainbow 100
+ MS-DOS for VAXmate
+ MS-DOS for IBM PC/XT/AT and compatibles
+ MS-DOS for PS/2 and compatibles
+ MS-DOS Microsoft Windows for IBM PC/AT and compatibles
+ OS/2 protected mode
+ ATARI ST
+ VAX/VMS
+ VAX ULTRIX
+ SCO XENIX
+ SCO UNIX
+
+
+ Installation
+
+ Each installation kit contains a file named INSTALL.HOW.
+ This text file contains the installtion instructions for the kit.
+
+
+ Known Problems
+
+ Under MS/DOS you may run out of files when using 3 to 4
+ concurrent buffers. You should increase the number of concurrent
+ files in CONFIG.SYS to at least 12. The symptom is either a
+ fatal message "Error creating buffer file" or non-fatal "Could
+ not open journal file" or "Could not open input file".
+
+ When on the MS/DOS versions the column number exceeds 64K
+ the display will become corrupted and Sedt may not be able to
+ recover. There are no plans to correct this problem.
+
+

+ 296: 6-Apr-1992
+ Incorporate a number of changes made by Rudolf Sedlaczek
+ from Technical University Vienna
+
+ 13-NOV-1991 VMS-version:
+ - Don't set terminal to pasthru (in qio.mar) to enable Ctrl/C, Ctrl/Y and
+ Ctrl/T again as in former versions.
+ These keys can therefore not be defined as SEDT keys.
+ - Allow logical names for function definitions, keyboard maps, help file,
+ keyboard diagrams, configuration and initialization file.
+ SEDT now first looks for these logicals before trying to open
+ the files in the current directory, SEDT$DIR and SEDT$LIBRARY
+ All logicals are built by replacing the . by $
+ The benefits are to have to maintain only one keyboard diagram file
+ and one keyboard map file for up to 4 different terminal-types or
+ be able to edit a file in a directory containing these files.
+ For EDT Mapping, following logicals apply:
+ FUNDEF$EDT VT100M$EDT VT200M$EDT VT300M$EDT VT400M$EDT HELP$EDT
+ VT100H$EDT VT200H$EDT VT300H$EDT VT400H$EDT SEDT$CNF SEDTCOM$TXT
+
+ 27-NOV-1991 all versions
+ - fix bug in :NWC
+ - On :UOFF or :RF do not repaint windows on buffer stack if current
+ window is zoomed (avoids multiple flushing of hidden windows to
+ the screen)
+ else if current window is not zoomed and in case of zoomed windows
+ in the buffer stack start repainting of all windows at the zoomed
+ window, not at the beginning of the buffer stack.
+ - change status line to appear only once for any counts of windows.
+ Multiple lines with the same information or multiple first halfs of
+ the status line (in case of vertically splitted windows) makes no
+ sense.
+ - Show filename on window border if this border is in the upper half
+ of the screen and if the window is not the current window.
+ - Lower left corner of window border was displaced 1 column to
+ the left.
+ - Change :SASC to sho current column and ASCII value (only VMS, UNIX)
+ 11-DEC-1991
+ - Help System enhancements:
+ Allow F12 in help to function as Backspace (There is no Backspace
+ key on a VT200 keyboard)
+ Allow Keypad keys 0 to 9 besides numeric keys 0 to 9 to select
+ menus in help.
+ Prev Screen or Cursor Up redisplay first page of multiscreen help
+ topics, Next Screen and Cursor Down act like Return.
+ - Add mouse support for terminals with ANSI locator support
+ (e.g. DECterm, VWS terminal-emulator on VAXstations: VT200, VT300,
+ VT400. Mouse is disabled if Device-Type is VT100) for VMS.
+ Mouse is enabled by default.
+ Add following new mouse features:
+ - Clicking on the string B=n in the top status line cycles to the
+ next used buffer.
+ - Clicking on the string Mod=n in the bottom status line cycles to
+ the next modified buffer.
+ - Clicking on the Character M in the right corner of the top
+ status line displays the next broadcast message.
+ - Disable mouse during prompts, repeat-count entry, learn and help.
+ To disable mouse permanently add MOUSE=DISABLED to SEDT.CNF;
+ To disable mouse temporarily enter learn mode;
+ To disable mouse for one command (e.g. local cut/paste) enter Gold 1.
+ - Restrict recognized mouse events outside the edit window to left
+ button down clicks.
+ - Allow multiple resizing of windows with mouse without
+ disturbing screen refreshs.
+ ANSI locator input are escape sequences embedded
+ in the normal keyboard input stream. Corresponding keyboard mappings
+ and function definitions must exist for the mouse to function properly.
+ These consistent definitions are only included in the FUNDEF.INP and
+ VT200M.INP files!
+ - Fix Bug in MAPKEY to be able to compile key sequences with more
+ than 8 characters, for VMS allow at least CTRL/C and CTRL/Y to exit.
+ 3-JAN-1992
+ - Define characters `~[{]}\| as input string terminators in qio.mar
+ and corresponding functions definitions and keyboard mappings. This
+ fixes an old VMS-specific behaviour, where normal typewriter keys
+ where incorrectly echoed (by the multiple character read qio with
+ echo) when these keys were redefined (e.g. as German Umlaut) and the
+ cursor was positioned at end of line. This was also necessary for the
+ proper function of the new style commands starting with `, as the
+ menu was sometimes not immediatly displayed due to the same reason.
+ - Add some new style menu commands to EDT mapping.
+ - Add new command :RI (Reposition Input stream one character) for
+ internal use, corresponding function definition and keyboard mapping
+ to allow pending new style menu commands to be cancelled by an
+ escape- sequence (any keypad or function key). This sequence is no
+ longer inserted into the buffer, but executed normally.
+ 3-FEB-1992
+ - Add new command :CNV (CouNter absolute Value) to convert the current
+ value of a counter to its absolute value. This is needed for the
+ indentation functions (Gold Left/Right Arrow) to prevent a syntax
+ error when the current direction is reverse.
+ - Add mouse support for terminals with ANSI locator for CONVEX and SUN.
+ Include appropriate definitions in FUNDEF.INP and DEFM.INP files.
+ 16-MAR-1992
+ - Enable mouse support for terminals with ANSI locator for all UNIX
+ systems.
+
+ Include Prev. and Next boxes in prompt dialog box in TSEDT
+
