Qedit's Visual mode is a powerful but friendly full-screen editor designed specifically for programmers. You can fully access the editing capabilities of your terminal in block mode, with low system overhead. Visual mode's cut-and-paste functions allow you to move, copy, mark and delete blocks of text. To use Visual mode, you must have an HP terminal or emulator.
If you only have one or two programmers who will be using Qedit, we also have a 2-user version of Qedit.
Qedit is also available for HP-UX.
Tips and technical information
Suprtool is also a general tool which allows you to copy, select and sort data. It can read and write to almost any kind of file on the HP 3000. A simple five or ten line Suprtool task in a job stream can often replace hundreds of lines of boring, repetitive and error prone Cobol code.
Suprtool is really five tools in one: Suprtool, the fast extraction and sort utility; Suprlink, the multi-dataset merge program; Dbedit, an interactive database editor that also updates key values; Speed Demon, a set of intrinsics that enable your programs to read IMAGE data five times faster; and Suprtool2, a callable subroutine that provides access to Suprtool and Suprlink from user-written programs.
Suprtool is also available for HP-UX.

Xpress not only speeds up communications between employees, it also allows batch jobs to send messages to people. You can program jobs to send messages to programmers or operations staff whenever certain events occur. You can also create a weekly batch job that sends database capacity reports to the MIS manager.
Xpress is available only for Hewlett-Packard Series 900 computers.
