   This package is an abriviated set of scripts I use with Ed 2.00 to make
it my favorite editor.

            More logical control keys
            Unlimited cut and paste
            Search and replace
            Include common code fragments
            To upper/lower
            Spell check
            Print
            Save with s bit set
            And bits ive forgotten


   I first use ed_patcher.rexx to reasign a few keys internally (ctrlX for delete
line and others) then use the ed-startup file to use rexx scripts for clip and paste,
include files and search/replace functions.

   SOME OF THE REXX FILES REQUIRE rexxtricks.library AND/OR  rexxreqtools.library
     --- Most do not ---

   The spell checker uses AZspell

   This package is really aimed at people who are using rexx and want some
new ideas to hack into. There is NO INSTALLER script and it may not be so
easy for a non-Rexx user to use. But try anyway; copy the package directories to
their name sake location (ie rexx to rexx:, env to env:, envarc to envarc:
and s to s:)

   One word of caution: this will overwrite your s:shell-startup and
envarc:editor files, maybe you want to just check these file first.

   Below is the patcher header and a summary of key assignments all of which
should be read in conjunction with the DOS manuals.

   The patch program is the tricky bit. Place a copy of Ed into ram: then
"rx ed-patcher.rexx" that is all. A new editor called Edi will be produced
in ram: which should then be copied onto your search path (ie c:). Feel
free to edit anything to suit you use better -- its a hack exercise rather
than the answer to everything.

/***********
*
*   Patch Ed to use ^X as delete (rather then ^B) and a few other changes :)
*         This script was based on Ed v37.11 released with WB 3.1
*                 I believe this was unaltered from WB 2.1
*
*   These are the original function definitions:        + functions changed in Edi

          SF21'CS';SF22'CE';SF23'T';SF24'B';SF25'DC'
          SF^@'BS';SF^A'A //';SF^B'D';SF^C''            + ^@ ^A ^B
          SF^D'PD';SF^E'EP';SF^F'FC';SF^G'RE'           + ^D
          SF^H'DL';SF^I'TB';SF^J'';SF^K''
          SF^L'';SF^M'S';SF^N'';SF^O'DW'                + ^O
          SF^P'';SF^Q'';SF^R'WP';SF^S''
          SF^T'WN';SF^U'PU';SF^V'VW';SF^W''             + ^U ^W
          SF^X'';SF^Y'EL';SF^Z'';SF^['CM'               + ^X
          SF^\'';SF^]'CT';SF^^'';SF^_''

*   refer to the ADOS or WorkBench manuals for Ed infomation
*     NB:   Edi uses S:Startup-Ed   (NOT   S:Ed-Startup)
*
*
*   IMPORTANT: if you decide to edit the new definitions
*
*      + the total number of bytes must be unchanged
*      + the format of 4 definitions per line, seperated by ';' and
*                         9 lines (seperated by '00'x, must be unchanged)
*      + the guru is watching and the script only tests for the obvious
*      + the rule is; if in doubt, give it a go !
*
*      + USE WITH CARE ON A _COPY_ OF ED (not that this really matters :)

            ***  ***    New Ed Reference Card    ***  ***

   This list of New_Ed functions should be read in conjunction with the
   Amiga DOS reference manual chapter on ED. This is NOT a complete
   reference of all the internal functions and key sequences, it is an
   overview of the functions (and REXX script names) available in the
   New_Ed package.          PLEASE READ THE DOS/ED MANUAL.
