	This directory contains the MCE V4.24 Commandline Editor
	from Hans Hamakers, ABB Industrie b.v.
	P.O. Box 113, 3000 AC Rotterdam Netherlands.

   Version V4.24 has the following new features : (since V4.23)

	- <CTRL/P> now "pauses" MCE via a Suspend directive.
	  To reactivate MCE give the MCR or DCL "RESUME" command.
	  The idea came from Jim Bostwick, Cargill Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA.

       - On a VT4xx terminal it is possible to use <F1>..<F5> as normal 
	  function keys. MCE enables you to define those keys too.

       - The detection of HT: terminals ( CP/RSX ) inserted in V4.23
	  is taken out because CP/RSX has no problems with it.

	- The I&D space question in MCEBLD was removed in V4.23 because
	  I&D space gave some problems with CP/RSX. The problem was not
	  in MCE but in the INSTALL task of CP/RSX. The question is back
	  again but I&D space with MCE does not give you much anyway. 

	- The combination of a build in default for INSERT/OVERSTRIKE 
	  with an MCE Command specifying the same default did result in
	  staying in the last mode activeted by <CTRL/A>.
	  This bug is fixed now.

	- MCE without multiple CLI support did not display the default
	  prompt. This bug is fixed now.

	- The addition "VT2" and "TDV" to the MCE intro and version
	  message is deleted.

	- MCE.DOC is upgraded to the latest version.
