There are four groups of files here:  first, customizations to
EDT and the EDT Keypad Emulator for TPU; second, a FORTRAN
program for rapid login; third, an UNRUNOFF collection; and
fourth, a TELENET collection.  The versions of the first two
groups of files extant on December 2, 1985, were submitted to the
VAX SIG Symposium tape from the Anaheim DECUS meeting. 



The customizations to TPU'S EDT Keypad Emulator are implemented
with the following files: 


CUSTOM.RNO is the DSR source for a handout given to users 
    switching over from real EDT to this TPU emulation; it ends 
    with a single-page summary of all the key definitions
    implemented in VMS, standard TPU EDT, or the Kalamazoo
    College customizations.  

EDTINI.EDT is the EDT editor command file containing the
    customized editor commands emulated in KAZSECINI.TPU.  It 
    was used as a starting point for constructing the TPU edit
    functions. 

EDTINI.TXT is used by the EDTINI.EDT command file.  It provides 
    help for the EDT customized commands.

KAZSECINI.TPU is the TPU source for the Kalamazoo College 
    customizations. 

TPUDECUS.RNO is the DSR source for the paper on the programming
    of the customizations, published in the February, 1986, issue
    of the PAGESWAPPER.  

TPUEDT.RNO is the DSR source for the current draft revision of
    the above paper.

TPUINI.TPU is the TPU source given to individual users as their
    personalizable editor initialization. 




FORTLOGIN.COM is the DCL source to compile, link, and install
    LOGIN.FOR. 

LOGIN.FOR is the FORTRAN source for the Kalamazoo College system,
    illustrating the use of system services instead of DCL to
    obtain rapid login.  The resulting image is installed shared,
    header_resident, open.  Much of the code will be a useful 
    model only in situations, such as our own, in which there 
    are several remote printers that are to be used by default 
    when logged in at terminals located close to them.  And even 
    that may be hard to achieve unless each such terminal is
    direct-wired.  




NORMAL.TXT is a dummy file needed by the CONVERT command used in 
    the UNRUNOFF command procedure.

UNCRLF.TPU is the tpu command file that cleans up the <CR> and 
    <LF> characters that remain after the CONVERT operation.  It 
    also eliminates any of the following characters:  ctrl/s, 
    ctrl/q, <DELETE>, and null bytes.

UNRUNOFF.COM is the command file that does the work.  P1 is the 
    file to be operated on, specified without ; or version 
    number.  The final output is two versions higher. 




DIALCLEAN.COM compiles, links, and installs the following file.

DIALCLEAN.FOR is the FORTRAN source for a program to clean up 
    DIALOG set host/log files, which are naturally 7-bit ASCII 
    with the eighth bit providing odd parity.  There are still
    some problems with this code. 

TELENET.COM uses SET/HOST/LOG to access a variety of TELENET 
    services, and afterwards cleans up the log file using 
    DIALCLEAN where needed and then UNRUNOFF. 

TELENET.OPT is the screen display text of the options; used by 
    TELENET.COM if P1 is missing.
