Short: An commandline interface for CED Author: petr.cisar@ericsson.cz Uploader: petr cisar ericsson cz Type: text/edit Version: 1.2 Requires: ss.library Architecture: m68k-amigaos This program serves as an interface for the programs which call an text editor via shell (it concerns especially the programs ported from UNIX). EditCEDFile loads the file to (already running) CED, and waits until the user pushes . Then it considers the editations to be done and terminates. The stuff is done by saving the original F-keys configuration to a temporary file and loading it back on exit, so the original setup is not changed. It supports multiuser and according to $CONSOLE and $GLOBTASK variables it can decide whether it can start just CED or some console-based editor (CED is not suitable for telnet users :-) ). To bypass this function, you can use the FORCELOCAL switch. I am aware that this program can be replaced with an ARexx script, but this one is quite faster. Parameter overview ------------------ FILE/A The file to be edited REMOTEEDITOR/K An alternative console-based editor (default is "vim") DEBUG/S Displays talking to CED FORCELOCAL/S Always use CED, regardless of the multiuser stuff Environment variables --------------------- CONSOLE - the name of the console EditCEDFile has been started from GLOBTASK - the task used for getting information about the globally logged on user
