  EVE

  EVE (Extensible Versatile Editor) is a general-purpose text editor,
  created with TPU. Using EVE you can---

     o  Create or edit one or more files in an editing session
     o  Use multiple buffers and windows, and resize the windows
     o  Set EDT or WPS keypad, define keys, and create learn sequences
     o  Select boxes or linear ranges for cut-and-paste or other edits
     o  Use either VMS- or ULTRIX-style wildcards to search text
     o  Execute VMS system commands, such as DIRECTORY, from within the
        editor
     o  Compile and execute TPU procedures to extend EVE
     o  Add or delete menu items for the DECwindows interface
     o  Save your customizations for future editing sessions
     o  Use initialization files at startup or during an editing session
     o  Recover your text if a system failure interrupts your session

  EVE runs on VMS or ULTRIX, with either DECwindows or character-cell
  terminals. Thus, you can use the same editor on either system.

  You can use EVE to build your own TPU application. The EVE source files
  are available online as examples of TPU programming and as a library of
  TPU procedures. For a list of the EVE source files, use the following DCL
  command:

     $ DIRECTORY SYS$EXAMPLES:EVE$*.TPU

  For a tutorial on using EVE, see the Guide to VMS Text Processing. For
  information about EVE commands, see the EVE Reference Manual.
