CED and AREXX
I just got CygnusEd Professional and it's great. I immediately started
experimenting with it and AREXX, writing a small macro to remove the 'More
[Y]?' from my UseNet message files. Here is what I started with:
* This program removes 'More [Y]?' line from UseNet files*/
address 'rexx_ced'
beg of file
do i=1 to 100
search for 'More [Y]?'
delete line
end i
exit
It all seems to work OK except for one problem. It only finds 'More'. A
little experimenting seems to show that nothing after a space is passed to
CED. If I look at the 'Search for' requestor after running my macro, the
requestor only shows 'More'. If I type 'More [Y]?' directly into the
SEARCH requestor everything works OK. Any sugguestions?
Also, in fooling around with this, I managed to get myself in a 'do
forever' loop. When it got to the end of the file, it keep trying to
execute and I was unable to get out of the macro and had to reboot. Any
suggestions?
CED is a great program. Keep it up!
