TECO invokes the TECO text editor. TECO is an unsupported editor capable of both basic editing and complex programmed string processing. Formats TECO file-spec to edit an existing file TECO out-file-spec=in-file-spec to edit from one file to another MAKE file-spec to create a new file MUNG cmd-file-spec to execute a TECO command file MUNG cmd-file-spec,text-arg as above, but passes a text argument As these are not built-in DCL commands, you need to enter TECO :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TECO TECO MAKE :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TECO MAKE MUNG :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TECO MUNG """ in your LOGIN.COM file. Please also read what HELP TECO INI says. 2 Initialization TECO decodes its commands with a built-in command decoder. If TECO finds the logical name TEC$INIT, its equivalence string is assumed to be either a TECO macro or, if the string starts with a dollar sign ($), the rest of the string is assumed to be a file-spec containing a TECO macro to be executed every start up. To disable the lookup of TEC$INIT, the qualifier /NOINI can be used. Your LOGIN.COM file can define the TECO command with preset qualifiers if desired. The qualifiers /NOCRE, /NOINI, and /NOMEM are recognized by all TECO commands so that they can be preset at command definition time. To disable all TECO start up actions you would use TECO :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TECO TECO/NOCRE/NOINI/NOMEM To disable only TECO's memory you would use TECO :== $SYS$SYSTEM:TECO TECO/NOMEM Etc. 2 Memory TECO automatically remembers the file being edited. The file's name is stored in a process logical called TEC$MEMORY. If you invoke TECO without specifying a file-spec, TECO will read its memory logical and re-edit the last edited file. TECO's memory feature is completely inhibited by the /NOMEMORY qualifier. 2 Qualifiers /FIND Initially position to (find) the last marked position in the input file. Position is marked with the VTEDIT ESCape-F commands. /INSPECT Simply read the file-spec, don't create a new edited copy. /NOCREATE Do not automatically create a new file if the file specified by a TECO command doesn't already exist. /NOINI Do not attempt to find or use TECO's private initialization logical TEC$INIT. /NOMEMORY Do not read, create, or use TECO's memory logical TEC$MEMORY. /SCROLL Automatically enter split screen scrolling mode. The bottom 1/4 of the screen's lines are scrolled. /SCROLL:n sets the number of lines to scroll to n. /VTEDIT Automatically invoke the TECO keypad editor VTEDIT. /VTEDIT:HOLD Set the VTEDIT keypad editor into hold screen mode. /VTEDIT:SEEALL Set the VTEDIT keypad editor into SEEALL mode. /VTEDIT:HOLD:SEEALL Set the VTEDIT keypad editor into both hold screen and SEEALL modes.
