Information regarding TECO V34
		(12-APR-1979)

	Installation of TECO V34 on your VAX/VMS system

Please be sure to (re-)install ALL of the files below every time you
install TECO on your system and please be sure to (re-)read the TECO
and VTEDIT help files; things do change...

The files you need to install TECO V34 on your VAX/VMS system are:

	File destination

	SYS$SYSTEM:TEC.EXE;/CONTIG

	SYS$LIBRARY:LOCAL.TEC;
	SYS$LIBRARY:TECO.TEC;
	SYS$LIBRARY:TYPE.TEC;
	SYS$LIBRARY:VTEDIT.TEC;

	SYS$HELP:TECO.HLP;
	SYS$HELP:VTEDIT.HLP;
	SYS$HELP:VTEDIT.DOC;

You can optionally use the INSTALL utility to install TEC.EXE as
permanently open.

You will need to add:

	*TECO
	@_TECO

and

	*VTEDIT
	@_VTEDIT

to the SYS$HELP:HELP.HLP file to enable help for TECO and VTEDIT.

The necessary things in one's LOGIN.COM file are:

	TECO :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TEC TECO	for command TECO
	MAKE :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TEC MAKE	for command MAKE
	MUNG :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TEC MUNG	for command MUNG

Obviously, abbreviations like "TE :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TEC TECO",
etc. can also be added.

The TECO help explains adding these to one's LOGIN.COM file.

When TECO starts up, it does an EITECO$.  If the logical name
TECO exists, it will be translated and the corresponding file
used instead of TECO's built in command decoder.  Else if the
file TECO.TEC exists in your current default directory, it will
be used.  The built in command decoder is very complete; using
a logical of TECO or having a TECO.TEC is not reccommended.

The built in command decoder's algorithm for finding VTEDIT is
(in order of preference):

	1) VTEDIT.TEC			in your top level (root) directory
	2) SYS$LIBRARY:VTEDIT.TEC
	3) punt...

If a TECO.INI exists in your top level (root) directory, the built
in command decoder will execute it for initialization.
The TECO kit contains a sample TECO.INI that contains both humerous and
useful features. It has leading comments explaining what one can easily change.
Squishing it after making any changes sure makes it smaller and faster...

Other TECO macros contained in the kit are:

SEARCH.TEC	Will search for all occurances of some list of strings,
		which may include TECO search argument constructs,
		in some, possibly wild carded, list of files.  Output is
		either to TT: or to a file.  It prompts you for each item;
		a null response (i.e., just carriage return) ends lists,
		defaults output to TT:, etc.  SEARCH flags the found string
		by inserting a "~".  You invoke SEARCH with:
			MUNG SEARCH

LOCAL.TEC	Reorders local symbol blocks.  Understands .ENABL LSB,
		.ENABLE LSB and .DSABL LSB, .DISABLE LSB.  If any .ENABLE
		or .DISABLE directive exists in the text buffer, all
		.ENABLs and .ENABLEs are converted to ".enable" and all
		.DSABLs and .DISABLEs are converted to ".disable".
		LOCAL lives in Q-register L.  The numeric portion of
		Q-register L contains the local symbol increment value
		(defaulted to +10).  The default starting local symbol
		value is 10.  By typing nML (instead of just ML), you
		can temporarily change the starting local symbol value
		to n.  If you type -nML, the starting local symbol value
		will be n and no checks for .ENABL(.ENABLE)/.DSABL(.DISABLE)
		will be made (whole text buffer is used).  You load LOCAL
		into Q-register L with:
			EISYS$LIBRARY:LOCAL$$

SQU.TEC		Squishes TECO macros.  All @<cmd><dlim><string><dlim> are
		converted to <cmd><string><ESC>, lexical spaces are removed,
		etc.  The only conventions needed are:
		 a) Comments are labels with a space or tab immediately
		    following the leading "!".
		 b) If the delimiter used in a @^Uq command is %, then the
		    quoted string is plain text and not touched.  Else the
		    quoted string is sub-interperted as TECO macro code.

Finally, there is a TECO macro that can replace the TYPE command.  It is
TYPE.TEC  By adding
	TY :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TEC MUNG/NOI SYS$LIBRARY:TYPE,TYPE
to your LOGIN.COM file and by putting TYPE.TEC into SYS$LIBRARY: you can
implement it.  Now TYPE commands abbreviated to just TY go to the macro.

The macro accepts wild carded file(s) and has the following switches:

	/W		Announce file names as the files are typed.
	/H		Use the VT52 hold screen mode during typing.
			/H forces /W to be on.
	/T		Truncate long lines (i.e., don't wrap them).
	/V		Convert all HT, LF, VT, FF, CR to viewable (e.g.,
			HT is converted to <tab>) characters.
	/N:n		Start typing at page n.
	/S:"string"	Find string "string", then start typing.
	/S:"string"/N:n	Find nth occurance of string "string", then start
			typing.
	/P		When string "string" is found, start typing at the
			start of the page it is found on.
