The UV.VI verb on our UNIX UniVerse is a cataloged BP program shipped with
UniVerse:
UV.VI
0001 V
0002 BP.O/UV.VI.B
0003 B
0004 UBN
0005
0006
0007
0008
0009 BP.O
The program UV.VI.B allows you to edit multivalued files using VI. It
creates a temp BFILE and executes VI to edit it. It has an error at line
130 where "dirtype = file.info<20>" should be changed to "dirtype =
file.info<21>" to enable handling of Type 19 files.
Our VOC VI entry is
VI
0001 V
0002 /usr/bin/vi
0003 U
0004 TIVR
0005 vi
Hope that helps,

Re: [U2] VI on Windows UniVerse
Can you help me with this? I must say, I am not a developer--merely a
curious IT manager at the customer's company.... Our vendor supports me
fully in my learning endeavors, so long as I am careful with the
production
system.
What does the UV.VI verb look like on UNIX UniVerse?
Could you provide me with some sample BASIC code to do this if it's not
too
difficult? This assumes that vim, the console version (which appears to
be
the best option) is in the Windows PATH.
By the way, I am reading through JES' "Pick/BASIC, a Programmer's Guide"
--
this is an excellent text. Does anyone have other recommendation for a
beginner to look at?
We're using PICK-flavored UV 10.2 on Windows 2003 Server x64 edition.
Moving from MVBASE 1.3 was one of the best decisions my company has ever
made... the speed and stability improved immeasurably. :)
Thanks again,
Gabe
