Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
Many thanks for all the suggestions. So far I have only looked at the UV Basic Developer Toolkit. This seems to do the job, but can only be used for type 1 type 19 files. So great for editing source code, but not for editing data records. I need to be able to do both. I will check out the others shortly..

We are on a UNIX box and have SAMBA running. This lets me use any Windows text editor I want. Personally, I use SlickEdit because it has lots of features that I find very useful. It does NOT have anything built in to compile and catalog because it does not really understand that my BP source code is actually code. Just my 2 cents.

Yeah we got them to do some bespoke emulation work for the old videotext terminals as used by the travel viewdata network.

Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
Nirvan, I second AccuTerm WED. In addition to WED, I have created a couple of other commands using AccuTerm to run Windows programs. One of these is a compare program that opens 2 programs (items) in Winmerge. Winmerge is a windows compare/merge program that is very useful for locating changes in text files. It allows copying of data from either item to the other and when I exit it, I have a prompt to update the original items. Thus it does both a compare and edit. Winmerge knows nothing about MV so not so useful on multivalues. The second one opens a program (item) in windows grep which displays lines containing a search string. I have samba setup so I can use Winmerge, windows grep or any windows editor directly from Windows. I use Ultraedit which has a very useful hex mode. For data items containing multivalues and subvalues, AE is my choice. HTH.

We are just about finished adding the ability to add documentation and examples to code completion. XLr8Editor is $79.00 per year per workstation. We have free trials.

Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
Please don't use the UV Clients anymore - unless you are on a really old version of UV. You can download the U2 DBTools package which contains a much better version of BDT (among other useful tools like XAdmin and RESTful Web Services) from here: http://u2.rocketsoftware.com/resources/downloads -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Symeon Breen Sent: Monday, February 25, 2013 10:03 AM To: 'U2 Users List' Subject: Re: [U2] UV full screen editor On the UV clients CD in the eclipse based tools there is the Basic Development toolkit (BDT) this will probably give you most of what you want. -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Nirvan Wijesekera Sent: 25 February 2013 14:04 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] UV full screen editor Hello all, I'm new to this forum, so apologies if this topic has been brought up before.

Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
Unfortunately not baked in to BDT yet. You can always override the BASIC/CATALOG keywords (after copying them to something like stdBASIC, stdCATALOG) with stub programs featuring few lines of logic to call your tool chain unless called in certain situations which should redirect to the std* versions.

Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
I'll second the vote for the wED utility in AccuTerm. In the recent v7.1 a Lot of welcome enhancements were made which take this Far beyond similar editors - and free with the emulator aint a bad deal either. I'm also quite fond of mvToolbox (http://www.mvtoolbox.com/) It's a fabulous bit of software, and it's only fault is that it does too much. It has too many features, too much documentation, and the author is too eager to update the product. I'm serious. This is proof of the concept that software with too many features can confuse an industry into lack of adoption. But this software does more than any other in its class in this industry, and if you like a real does everything kind of product then you should look at this. The website is unmaintained, marketing is almost non-existent, and the author is too eager to give the software away just to give it exposure. I swear, it's the weirdest story of any product around. But the bottom line is that this is great software that responds to the current inquiry. HTH T From: Bill Haskett Probably the simplest, and easiest to use, would be AccuTerm http://www.asent.com. ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
Also If you want an editor integrated into your terminal emulator I have always found wintegrate to be the best solution out there. ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
Symeon: That may be true these days, but wIntegrate has always been significantly more expensive than AccuTerm, and AccuTerm always worked better with Linux and SSH (rather than using SSL like wIntegrate does/did). Also, AccuTerm's licensing was significantly easier to manage (we still have clients struggling with the old site-licensing of wIntegrate). Nowadays, however, we use UniObjects to connect to our servers and run our application. Even now, I still use AccuTerm mostly, and VS2010 (which I mostly dislike - but that's just the environment). I've tried xLr8, BST, Brian's but there's always something that just trips me up each and every day with these packages. Every time I get one of these set up and running, something changes or something I do on a common basis is just very difficult to accomplish. :-( Bill Untitled Page - Original Message - *From:* syme...@gmail.com *To:* 'U2 Users List' u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org *Date:* 2/25/2013 10:56 AM *Subject:* Re: [U2] UV full screen editor Also If you want an editor integrated into your terminal emulator I have always found wintegrate to be the best solution out there. ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: [U2] UV full screen editor
I have used Emacs for UV development, including source coding and file editing for many years. There is a mode for UVBasic (unibasic-mode) and I have written a number of emacs-lisp based modes for editing m/v files. These are all available on the PickWiki site.
