Bibliographic Details
Title: A Generalized Text Editor.
Authors: Montgomery, C.A., Fraser, Christopher W.1
Source: Communications of the ACM. Mar1980, Vol. 23 Issue 3, p154-158. 5p.
Subjects: Text editors (Computer programs), Computer interfaces, Computer operating systems, User interfaces, Programming languages, Systems software
Abstract: Text is not the only data that needs editing; for example, file deletion utilities edit directories. If all "editors" used the same command language, they would be easier to learn, remember, and code. This paper describes a generalized editor that edits text, directories, binary core images, and certain operating system data with a single user interface. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
