Overview: nu/TPU, your OpenVMS Migration Editing Solution:
nu/TPU is a fully programmable text editor modeled after Digital's TPU (Text Processing
Utility). It includes the EVE, EDT and WPS interfaces for easy and familiar text
editing across all your platforms, including Windows NT, Windows 9x, DOS, and all
major UNIX vendors.
When migrating from OpenVMS to NT, Windows, and/or UNIX, it is most beneficial to
remain consistent with native application development tools, such as the TPU text
editor with its EVE and EDT interfaces. nu/TPU offers full emulation of these interfaces,
and is compatible with DEC TPU so that customizations can be ported to a new target
system without change.
nu/TPU allows you to take full advantage of windowed environments, such as MS Windows
and Motif. Text selection, command execution, window resizing, cursor positioning,
cutting and pasting, etc. can all be done via the mouse or keyboard. Other features
include unlimited files and buffers, rectangular box editing, user definable window
widths, easy key redefinition, wildcard and case-sensitive search and replace, spawn,
shell, word wrap, free and bound cursor movement, user-definable backup, customizable
interface, dynamically built help function, color and font support.
Without nu/TPU, editing tasks on a new platform such as NT or UNIX can cause large
headaches and incur significant learning curve costs. Using nu/TPU, training costs
of learning a new editor are non-existent, time is saved by eliminating any duplicate
customizing and reprogramming, and productivity is retained by keeping the same
robust TPU-based editor, full of powerful features that everyone is used to and
favors.
As you integrate NT, Windows, and/or UNIX into your OpenVMS environment, there is
no reason to use multiple editors. nu/TPU provides all of the functionality of VMS
TPU for WindowsNT, Windows95, DOS, and UNIX, allowing you to maximize your productivity
investment by using your VMS TPU code scripts without change. When you move away
from VMS, take your customized VMS editor with you by using nu/TPU. Download a demo
