But, even in those days there were people who could create decent editors, like the LSE from Digital...
I used to use an editor on a VAX 11/780, but I don't recall what it was called. What impressed me was, on one occasion, the computer crashed, then after it was brought back up, the editor replayed everything I had done to create the document. Yeah, that was probably "TPU". Funny thing was, that you could edit the history file, put an entire week of working in it, and let it run on an empty file to impress other people ;-) "LSE" was the first language-sensitive-editor (hence the name) I came across. It had a build in help for all low-level-system call. (asm, fortran, pascal) And when doing asynchronous-system-traps with 40 optional parameters, it felt like heaven. Probably nothing special today, but in the 80's it made cubborts full of manuals obsolete. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
