This is yet another text editor which was first written a few years  ago
in  Macro-11  and  used on RT, RSTS/E and RSX. The Macro-11 version (not
included here) predates EDT change mode, which is  one  of  the  reasons
why  it  was  written  to  start  with.  This is a complete redesign and
rewrite in C with some Macro-32. It functions as both a line editor  and
full  screen  editor.  The  main  reason  it  was rewritten in C was for
portability and to be able to run in native mode.  Documentation  is  in
the  *.MEM  files  and  also in online help. Note that it is copyrighted
and can not be ported to any other system and sold. 
It does allow multiple paste buffers and multiple file windows, see HELP
and notes at the end of this document.
The PDP11 task image  dynamically determines  actions at run  time based
on the underlying operating system,  thus the same task image  run under
P/OS, RSX11M+ and RSTS/E. On the PDP11, it takes 38KW user + 4KW shared.


To install:

 P/OS
	Copy TED.TSK to [userdisk] and *.HLP to [001002]
	Copy EDRESL.TSK to [001001]. Do an INS [001001]EDRESL
	EDRESL is a cluster library against RMSRES.

	as in:

	$ cop/cont dz1:[ted]ted.tsk ted.tsk
	$ cop/cont dz1:[ted]edresl.tsk lb:[1,1]
	$ cop dz1:[ted]tedvt220.hlp lb:[1,2]tedvt100.hlp
	$ ins lb:[1,1]edresl
	$ run ted

	Also, the logical  TED$TEMP is the first  choice for it's
	work file location, otherwise it goes in current default.

	You can, of course, download via Kermit-11 to the PRO for
	all files needed. The *.HLP files are FIXED 512.


	The P/OS version also allocates a 18 KW dynamic region to
	cache the workfile and to allocate space for a reasonable
	number of workfile buckets.  Currently you would overflow
	a RD52 before running out of space in the region.


 RSTS/E
	 This version will ONLY  run under version  9.0 or later.  It
	needs dynamic region support,  which was  lacking in previous
	versions of RSTS/E. Copy the TED.TSK image to someplace where
	you want it, with a 234 protection code. Copy the files *.HLP
	to LB:[1,2] with a protection of 40. Create a CCL for it.  In
	the following, the account SY:[0,250] is assumed to exist.

		$ copy ted.tsk [0,250]
		$ copy edresl.lib [0,250]
		$ ins/lib [0,250]edresl
		$ def/com/sys SED [0,250]ted.tsk
		$ def/com/sys TED [0,250]ted.tsk
		$ set prot=234 [0,250]ted.tsk

	 As in P/OS, the logical TED$TEMP will be attempted first for
	the work file.  If that fails, it goes into  SY:.  Privileges
	are up only for the  region creation,  they are not up at the
	time of work file creation.


 RSX11M+
	Basically the same as P/OS and RSTS/E

 VMS
	Copy TED.EXE to sys$system:TED.EXE and sys$system:SED.EXE

	Install them as foreign commands as in  SED :== $SED
						TED :== $TED

	Run INSTALL and add them /shar/head/priv=exquota, as in:

	$ set verify
	$ ass/sys sys$sysroot:[syshlp] ted_help
	$ cop 1:[brian.ted]ted.exe sys$system:ted.exe/prot=w:re 
	$ cop 1:[brian.ted]ted.exe sys$system:sed.exe/prot=w:re
	$ cop 1:[brian.ted]tedsubpro.com ted_help:tedsubpro.com/prot=w:re
	$ run sys$system:install
	sed/del
	ted/del
	sys$system:sed.exe/shar/head/priv=exquota
	sys$system:ted.exe/shar/head/priv=exquota
	/exit
	$ set noverify
	$ exit

	The EXQUOTA priv  is desired so the editor will never die due to
	running out of space for it's work file but is not absolutely
	required.

	Add logical TED_HELP as in ASS/SYS SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSHLP] TED_HELP
	Copy TEDVT100.HLP and TEDHELP.HLP to TED_HELP with W:R access
	Copy TEDVT100.HLP to TED_HELP:TEDVT220.HLP also.

	If you assign a process logical called TED_TEMP to another device
	and directory and have the privilege to access it, TED will place
	it's workfile there.

	You are all done.


Differences from the PDP-11 version:

	1. There is no pratical limit  on the size of the file being edited,
	   as in the PDP-11 version TED uses a work file which is internally
	   LRU cached.  The size of the cache is based on your WSQUOTA.  The
	   internal index used  to access the work file is dynamic,  it will
	   grow when need be.
	   This 'new' TED (the one written in C), on the PDP-11, will create
	   an 11 KW dynamic region to cache the workfile and store pointers.

	2. New commands in the screen editor  include GOLD @ and GOLD #, see
	   the screen editor help menu (GOLD H) for information. (VMS only)

	3. The  editor creates a process logical called TED_LAST_FILE_EDITED
	   so it can remember the last file edited. (VMS only (so far))

	4. All I/O is done in RMS in Macro-32 for speed,  i/o thruput is not
	   a strong point of the C language.

	5. Gold B now selects alternate windows. Gold 3 selects alternate
	   paste buffers.

	6. The VT220 is supported ala the command SET TER VT2  or by checking
	   the terminal type set (normally) by $SET TER/INQ in LOGIN.COM. The
	   FIND, INSERT HERE, REMOVE, SELECT PREV SCREEN and NEXT SCREEN keys
	   are supported.
	   Under P/OS, VT220 mode is assumed.
