| I had the task to install programs on the computers connected to our database within the institute in the early 1990-s. It meant tapering the the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT. ''That time the built-in editors of the DOS were very user-unfriendly.''

|

|
| '''Turbo Prolog, however, offered the very smart ''edit'' predicate opening an editor window.'''
| | Back to main Page [[3rd:Main Page]] |
| This window could open auxiliary editor window.
| |
| The handling of the edited text wase based on pairs of function keys or three of them.
| |
| Like
| |
| copy block [Ctrl-F5]at block start[Ctrl-F5]at its end[Ctrl-F5]at its new place;
| |
| search and replace [F4]sought text[F4]replacement[F4].
| |
| '''The above function keys allow that the sought text and the replacement contain newline characters.''' (If you press enter then a triangle appears in them and you can define line groups to change.)
| |
| The English help screens are embedded in the ''edit'' predicate. [http://franknagy.atw.hu/Tipp/Proledit/proledit.hlp.htm The Hungarian help file is available on my homepage.]
| |
| See the whole stuff at http://franknagy.atw.hu/Tipp/Proledit/index.html.
| |
| [http://franknagy.atw.hu/Tipp/Proledit/index.html Main screen of the program on my homepage containing links to the executable program and sample screens.] | |
| | |
| There you can see that the program starts with color selection for directory and edited file. Its command line parameter is a file name or wildcard mask for initial file selection. The mask can be changed by F4.
| |
| F10 saves the edited file. In case of pressing Esc a question appears: "File has been changed. Quit anyway (y/n)?"
