This submission contains the latest version of APLTPU, a highly
enhanced version of DEC's EDT Emulator. This version of APLTPU
works under VMS V4.4-4.7 and VMS 5.x. Included are files to
build APLTPU for whichever version of VMS you are using.
This submission also includes APLEVE, which is APLTPU converted
to be based on EVE rather then the EDT Emulator. APLEVE also
contains enhancements over and above APLTPU. APLEVE is intended
to replace APLTPU. APLEVE requires VMS version 5.0 or later.
The following enhancements have been made to APLTPU since the
submission to the Spring '89 (Atlanta) SIG tape:
- Bug fixes
The following enhancements were made in the conversion from APLTPU
to APLEVE:
- GOLD U supports capitalize in addition to upper/lower
- PRINT has been added to line mode to print a "cheat sheet"
- "Multi window" support for more than 2 windows
- Setting of wildcard/normal FIND
- GOLD R provides a mroe useful ruler
- Unlimited number of saved positions
- Of course EVE functions and keypads are also available
Also included in this submission are two utilities, GBLSUBS and
GBLSEARCH. GBLSUBS allows text substitution in multiple files
with full support for wildcards in file names, and file and
substitute confirmation. GBLSEARCH is used to search files
for a given text string and to edit any files in which the string
is found.
More information follows about these utilities. If you have any
suggestions, find a bug, or have a question, send it along. I can
be reached either at the address above, or if you're on DECUServe,
send mail to EISNER::BRYANT.
APLEVE - Enhanced EVE
APLEVE is an enhanced version of EVE. APLEVE includes home
grown features, requests from users, and features gratefully
borrowed from EVEPLUS, APLTPU, and Encompass.

$ EVE :== @SYS$LIBRARY:APLEVE
$ EVER :== @SYS$LIBRARY:APLEVER
and then type

file that you edited will be used. EVER will edit a file in

$ TPU :== @SYS$LIBRARY:APLTPU
$ TPUR :== @SYS$LIBRARY:APLTPUR
and then type
$ TPU filename
