145.0. "Editor in a Window" by BUNNY::FU (HJ Fu & � � � � � �) Tue Feb 07 1989 15:46
We have an application which requires us to allow the user to be
automatically put in an editor (EDT) whenever he wants to create a
text file. When the user exits the editor, the editor disappears.
From FileView window, if I activate the 'Edit' push button in the
'Files' pulldown menu, I will first be asked to give a file name and
an editor of my choice (say EDT), then I will be put in the EDT
editor, which is inside a dialog box (?). When I exit from EDT, the
whole window then disappears.
This is exactly what we would like to implement for our application.
We appreciate any clues as to how this was implemented.

| FileVue uses the undocumented DECTerm widget.
If you don't mind the editor being in a window of it's own, you can use
DECW$TERM_PORT. There are some gotcha's in DECW$TERM_PORT, check the
DECTERM conference for details.
