The Extensible Versatile Editor (EVE) is a general-purpose text
  editor created with DECTPU---in effect, the default DECTPU
  application.  You can use EVE on DECwindows or character-cell
  terminals (VT400, VT300, VT200, or VT100 series).  EVE reads and
  writes standard ASCII text files.

  Using EVE, you can do the following:

  o  Perform basic text editing and formatting operations
  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 OpenVMS- or ULTRIX-style wildcards to search text
  o  Execute DCL commands, such as DIRECTORY, from within the editor
  o  Run DECspell to check selected text or an entire buffer
  o  Spawn subprocesses or attach to other processes
  o  Compile and execute DECTPU procedures to extend EVE
  o  Add or delete menu items for the DECwindows interface
  o  Save your customizations for future sessions
  o  Use initialization files at startup or during an editing session
  o  Recover your work in case of a system failure during a session
  o  Get online help on commands, keys, menu items, and other topics

  To invoke EVE, use the EDIT/TPU command.  By default, this runs the
  standard EVE section file---EVE$SECTION.TPU$SECTION (see help on
  /SECTION).  You may want to create a symbol for invoking EVE, by
  putting the following line in your LOGIN.COM file:

     $ eve :== EDIT/TPU    !  My symbol to invoke EVE

  If you specify an input file on the EDIT/TPU command line, EVE
  creates a buffer using the file name and file type for the buffer
  name, copies the file into that buffer, and displays it in the main
  window.  If the file does not exist---for example, if you are
  creating a new file---the buffer is empty.  If you do not specify an
  input file, EVE creates an empty buffer named MAIN.  See help on
  Parameters.

  By default, EVE tries to execute an initialization file named
  EVE$INIT.EVE in your current directory or in SYS$LOGIN (your top-
  level, login directory).  See help on /INITIALIZATION.

  Also, by default, EVE creates a buffer-change journal file for each
  buffer you create, so that if a system failure occurs during your
  editing session, you can recover your text.  See help on /JOURNAL and
  /RECOVER.

  To enter EVE commands, press DO or PF4, type a command, and press
  RETURN.  For a keypad diagram and help on defined keys, press HELP
  (on VT100-series terminals, press PF2).  To exit from EVE, press F10
  or CTRL/Z.

  For more information, see the Extensible Versatile Editor Reference
  Manual or use the online help in EVE, which provides informational
  topics on various features in addition to help on EVE commands and
  keys.  In particular, you may want to read the following
  informational topics:

     New Features
     New User
     EDT Conversion
     EDT Differences
     WPS Differences

  For information about using EVE on DECwindows, use the online help in
  EVE and read the topic called DECwindows Differences.

  DECTPU and EVE run on both OpenVMS and ULTRIX operating systems.  Thus,
  you can use the same editor on both systems, allowing for differences
  in the way files and directories are specified.
