Yeah, fond memories of a totally reliable system.

Anyone heard of a means of making emacs emulate this editor? I believe it has been done.

Heh-heh. OK, I'm going to send the definitive and final message on this thread. I just got it from Michael Möller:

                 GOLD key functions are shown as bottom function.

WAS an editor? WAS????? Some of us still use it! Well, I have migrated to

the EVE editor built on TPU, but it still has the same wonderful

functionality of the original in addition to a programmable interface (wrote

some sweet sweet TPU back in the day). The KB I'm typing this on is an

LK450, complete with the WORD-11 (MASS-11) keycaps and all the GOLD keydefs.

Yes, your recollection of KP keys 0, 4, and 5 are correct. Remember the

vi-like substitution command?

Sorry, Jared, for the OT. I MISS VMS! Stability, performance, security.

No wonder it didn't sell.

Back to planning the removal of our remaining Oracle DBs from OpenVMS....

0 was next line. Wasn't 4 Forward and 5 Back? I've CC'ed Michael

Möller, who writes DSI (Data Server Internals) classes in Oracle

Development. He taught me all I ever needed to know about the EDT editor

on VAX/VMS. He really should be able to remember all those wonderful

keys. Yes, it was a fantastic editor, by the way.

Ah yes - too true. Now we are getting nostalgic...

Nope, but I do have a 5MB RZ05 drive for interchangeable disks.

I don't have a computer to attach it to, but I have good memories

of KED and PF1 (Gold) key. KP-6 was "cut" GOLD-KP-6 was paste, PF2 was

"help" and PF3 was "Search". The best editor ever!
