Invokes a text editor. Unless you have selected a different editor by entering the SET EDITOR command, the DECTPU-based EVE editor is invoked. Use your editor to peruse the current message. When you are done, enter the appropriate command to quit from your selected editor. If you decide to edit the message and want to keep a copy of the newly edited message, enter the appropriate command to exit (use the EXIT command in EVE) and supply a file name.
