Language-Sensitive Editor

Language-Sensitive Editor (LSE) is a full-screen visual editor for the VAX/VMS and OpenVMS Operating systems. LSE is implemented by using the Text Processing Utility (TPU) language. It is part of the DECset programming tool set, which also contains a test manager, the performance and coverage analyzer (PCA), a code management system (CMS), and a module management mystem (MMS).

Features

LSE requires the features of a VT100 terminal and successors, or a compatible terminal emulator. It has the following features:

• Syntax templates for a number of programming languages, which can be modified or extended by the user.
• Windowing support.
• Compilation and debug within editor.
• Programmable editing functions.
• EDT keypad layout default.
