Editing DOS Files
Select Edit Any File from the Commands menu to edit DOS files only.
Except for .LOG and .XRF files, you cannot use this command to edit
files created by the Executive software. Figure 5.14 illustrates the Edit
a File dialog box.
A list box with all the available directories and files in the current
drive\library will be displayed. You can change the path displayed by
entering the desired path in the space provided. Select the file you
want to edit. Although all files in the subdirectory will be listed, they
cannot all be edited. The Programing Executive will display a
message if the selected item cannot be edited. You can make the
selection from the list box or you can enter the filename in the text
box. The filename can contain a wildcard character (*). All matching
files will be displayed in the list box. For example, entering *.TXT
would display all the text files in the current drive\directory and allow
you to select the file to be edited. After you make a selection and
click on OK, the text editor will come up on the screen.

Kermit Communications Software
Select Kermit from the Commands menu to access the Kermit
communications utility. Kermit allows your computer to emulate a

computer must first be connected to the host computer or another
personal computer via a serial port. See the Kermit Reference Manual
(JĆ3616) for information about using Kermit. Type EXIT at the KERMIT
prompt to close the Kermit utility and return to the System
Configuration screen.
