Memory Based Editor for '84 KAYPRO's
------------------------------------
KP-EDIT is a corrected and improved version of the editor in EDITOR.LBR.
Like its predecessor it is a memory based full screen editor featuring
a subset of the WORDSTAR commands, and anyone familiar with WORDSTAR should
feel right at home. [ Use ^J to call up various help screens... ]
Compared to the original it was modified as follows:
- All problems in connection with disk operations have been
corrected.
- The code has been cleaned up and streamlined: the total size
of the editor is now less than 5800 bytes.
- The memory buffer handling was redesigned leaving a much larger
text buffer.
- The help panels have been cleaned up.
- ^QP returns to the last cursor position before ^QR, ^QC, ^QF, or ^QA.
- ^KD saves the current file and clears the memory buffer without
leaving the editor. [ This replaces the non-WORDSTAR ^KZ which
is no longer supported.]
- The Tab spacing can now be set to any value between 1 and 32.
- The print command uses pagination and no longer asks for a printer
setup string. If you want to send a printer initialization string,
it can be up to 7 bytes long starting at address 0121h. The page
length is at address 0129h. [ default 3Ch = 60 ]
- The screen display uses some of the KAYPRO 84 video capabilities.
[ The editor will only work on KAYPROs with the '84 type video
support, like the 4-84, the 10, the 2X, etc. ]
If you encounter any problems, please let me know. I have used it for a
couple of weeks now and am not aware of any bugs.
