Subject:	Re: EDIT/TPU and mouse behavior
I do this with a TPU command procedure.

Define a logical TPU$COMMAND to point to the command procedure.  For example:

DEFINE TPU$COMMAND SYS$LOGIN:TPU$COMMAND.TPU

The TPU command procedure:

set (mouse, off);
eve_set_buffer ('modifiable');
eve_set_cursor_bound;
eve_set_keypad_edt;
eve_set_tabs (message_text (EVE$_SPACES));
eve_set_nowrap;
