MEMACS(1) DOS COMMANDS MEMACS(1)
NAME:
MEMACS : the most powerful editor that comes with AmigaDOS.
SYNOPSIS:
MEMACS [<file>] [GOTO nn] [OPT W]
TEMPLATE:
MEMACS
PATH:
SYS:Tools
DESCRIPTION:
MEMACS in an Amiga version of the Public Domain Micro Emacs
Editor. MEMACS is more powerful than ED and friendlier than EDIT.
Amiga user who don't have a hard disk must specify the full path to
call MEMACS: Extras1.3:Tools/Memacs . For hard disk user, the Tools
directory is in the path, so MEMACS is sufficient to start the editor.
To make things simpler, the best is to define an alias in the startup
sequence:
alias MEMACS Extras1.3:Tools/MEMACS
MEMACS is menu driven, and so is easy to use. A full description
of its features, is given in the AmigaDOS manual.
MEMACS takes a file name as the first argument, but don't need
one. If started without argument, MEMACS edits a new unnamed file.
OPTIONS:
GOTO nn: with this option, MEMACS opens a file and go directly to the
line nn.
OPT W : with this option, MEMACS opens a window in the Workbench
screen. Otherwise, MEMACS opens its own screen. This option is
useful mainly on system that are short of memory.
SEE ALSO:
ED, EDIT.
EXAMPLE:
> SYS:Tools/MEMACS s:Startup-sequence
> SYS:Tools/MEMACS MyFile GOTO 200
