    Val, Kristin;
     
    1. Page 1-4, I very much agree with the emphasis on "EVE".
     
    2. Page 1-6a, It may be useful to explain why "EDIT/TPU" is
       used to envoke "EVE".
     
    3. No major problems with this chapter.
     
    Arnold.
    
55.2The view from the UKUKEDU::SHONEKeith Shone @RKA 830-4074Fri May 10 1991 07:3018
   Module: Creating Memos, Reports, and Data Files

   My views - not necessarily those of my colleagues.

   Some of these comments I've made elsewhere - I think.

   1-7	    The status line in Figure 1-1 MUST include the word WRITE

	    Callout 2 MUST include mention of the meaning of WRITE

   1-13	    Bullet 2: please add a short statement about EVE asking for
	    a confirmation on QUIT for modified buffers. (Could
	    go in an instructor note). This point is NOTEd on page 1-22.

   1-19	    REPLACE: also puts the editor in insert mode.

Review chapter

       	CREATING MEMOS, REPORTS, AND DATA FILES

Page 1-13a: there are some problems with the recovering of TPU files.
            There for the customers can also run TPU V2.6 under VMS V5.3-1 and
	    VMS V 5.3-2.
            This because of mentioning VMS V5.4 TPU$JOURNAL this can also
	    happen under VMS V5.3-1/2

Page 1-13: toevoegen File recovery first  bullet
	           filename_filetype.TPU$JOURNAL

Page 1-16: Where are the multiply windows promised on page 1-5?

Maybe we can put something in about the EVE init file.  EVE$INIT.EVE
Same for EDT 

An example could be:             EVE$INIT.EVE

                                 set keypad edt

                  Sysnet I-module 4:

         	Page 1-10 Title: sounds like we are circling the
         file. How about "Moving the cursor around in the
         document" or "moving around in the document"

         	Page 1-13 In 5.3 and higher the default journal
         file TYPE is .TPU$JOURNAL.  The file name is a
         combination of the filename_filetype.  The underscore
         replacing the period.  There are new commands in eve
         help to do recovering in different ways.  We need to
         know how to recover using the .TPU$JOURNAL.  It is
         the default.  If it works then no one is going to do the
         extra work to invoke .tjl.

         	Page 1-15  State here that we can port in keypads
         not just from EDT but also other editors.

         	Please do not teach part of EVE here then another
         part later as in UC I then UC II.  In II we have to
         reteach the editor then talk about the few new features.
         Lets do it all, whatever we are going to do, in one
         place, then don't touch it again.  This being said I
         would like to cover section files, defining keys and the
         learn function.
