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 copy of nu/TPU v5.0 today.
