nu/TPU v5.0

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 3.1/95/NT/2000, 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 can also be fully integrated with VX/DCL and XLNT to provide a seamless migration path.

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 Windows 9 x /NT/2000, 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.

nu/TPU v5.0 Features

nu/TPU allows your company to standardize on a single editor across machine platforms. Not only does this reduce training costs but it helps developers feel more at ease working with new and unfamiliar platforms. The best way to keep a developer's productivity high is to provide superior development tools across platforms.

nu/TPU supports the use of initialization, command, and section files. Initialization and command files may be copied directly from your OpenVMS system and used with nu/TPU. Section files created with nu/TPU can be transferred to other nu/TPU platforms without recompilation. Customized nu/TPU editing interfaces are built using the exact same steps used to build a OpenVMS TPU editor.
