4 Seedit Utility
Seedit is a utility program supplied in the SeeView distribution subvolume. The
program provides editing, file management, and other utility functions for the SeeView
environment.
Functions provided by Seedit range from loading an EDIT file into the cache
associated with a window to monitoring a generic text log file such as a Pathway log
file or an operations log such as $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.OPRLOG.
Seedit provides basic commands to display subvolumes, files, and file information on
disk volumes.
To start Seedit from within the SeeView program, either:
•
Select Config from the SeeShell SeeView Extras menu
•
From the sill of any free window, enter:
OPEN SEEDITx := SEEDIT CACHE 100;
The x in Seedit represents a numeric character such as 1, 2, 3, and so forth.
Once you start Seedit, the commands summarized in Table 4-1, Summary of Seedit
Commands, are available. The Seedit commands are described in detail later in this
section.
