Chapter 1 INTRODUCING EDIT/3000 1-1. WHAT IS EDIT/3000? EDIT/3000 is a subsystem of the HP 3000 Multiprogramming Executive III operating system (MPE III) that is used to create and manipulate ASCII files. Characters, strings of characters, or entire lines of characters can be inserted, deleted, replaced, modified, searched for, and otherwise manipulated, by using EDIT/3000 commands. The files to be edited can be source programs written in computer languages such as FORTRAN and COBOL, or text material such as letters, reports, or technical manuals.
