3689.0. "NOTEPAD and DECPAINT from a program. Customizable" by ROM01::MASSE () Mon Nov 19 1990 14:34

     From a DECWINDOW application I need to use a simple TEXT editor.
     At the moment I LIB$SPAWN the NOTEPAD editor and it serves my purpose 
but ... I would like to customize the NOTEPAD user Interface in order to :
     - Have the Interface in Italian.
     - Have EXIT, QUIT and SEARCH as the only menu options.

     Hence my questions:

     - Can I call the NOTEPAD directly from my program? Does it have a 
programmable Interface? Is there such as thing as a widget NOTEPAD ?

     - Are the source listings of the NOTEPAD on SQM::VMS053$LISTINGS ?
Where exactly ? Would it be of any use for what I am trying to achieve ?


     I would also need a simple Image Editor and would have similar 
questions regarding DECPAINT.

     Thanks for your help.
