Syntax
ED <prg filename> | (<expC>)
See Also
MODIFY COMMAND, SET TEDIT, TEXTEDIT(), VI
Description
ED provides the facility to create or modify program files and other text files. The filename can be substituted with a <expC>, enclosed in round brackets, which returns a valid filename. If no file extension is present in the file name, then '.prg' is used.
The default editors are: the 'vi' editor under UNIX and Linux; the 'edt' editor under VAX/VMS. You may override these defaults using the SET TEDIT command.
ED is a synonym of the MODIFY COMMAND and VI commands.
Example
modify command myprogram ed myprogram vi myprogram
