Mladen, we must have started in the same era. You're describing the

Hope you don't mind the intrusion... I used HLI back in 5.0.20 days, and the

IAD was the executable (on VMS) that the Sql*Forms command ran (D for
Designer). IAG was to generate a form (G for Generate). IAP to execute it
(P for something that I can't remember). This was SqlForms 3.0.

The second one is a commercial product, but certainly provides a

No, sorry, that is the correct answer. The original question was Does
anyone remember TECO? In TECO, if you entered the command make love, it
would respond not war.
Two points to Bill and thanks for the smile to both,
