Suprtool 5.4.01

• Suprtool did not print out a warning message when a sort was combined with output,else. (MPE only Fixed in 5.4.01)

We have adjusted the logic in making sure the calculation is done for this case earlier. Adager does not create these single chunk jumbo datasets. There is an un-documented $control directive in dbschema called $forcejumbo, which will produce one of these single chunk jumbos so we are supporting it in Suprtool 5.3.11.

Qedit for HP-UX Visual Mode Issue (5.4/5.5)

We had a problem with Qedit Visual Mode when editing Cobol files. The problem only occurs on HP-UX 11.x or when you force Block mode emulation with Set vis Blockemulation On. After you have marked a block of text to move or copy, (with a cc or mm) and then attempt to paste in on another page, you will receive an error:

 NO UPD:  bad format in left 4 columns (see qscreen)

Qedit Version 5.6

• Set Vis Attachmate was added to allow for wide-column support with the HP terminal emulator called KEA! 700/98 for Windows 95/98/NT version 5.10x from Attachmate.

Qedit Version 5.5

• With Set Work Trailingspaces On, Qedit can preserve trailing spaces in a variable-length record file. This also allows creation of odd-length records.
• The Merge-justified (mergej) command merges the content of a file with the current workfile based on the line numbers by appending text of the external file to the corresponding line in the workfile.
• You can define a scrollup character with Set Visual Scrollup and be able to scroll backward in full-screen mode. The default character is an minus sign "-".
• You can mark a line range to be excluded from the display in full-screen. Lines can be excluded using the Set Visual XX command or by using XX indicators in the cut-and-paste area in full-screen mode.
• Use Colcopy and Colmove to copy/move columns on a line.
• With Set Varsub On, Qedit can substitute environment variable names such as !HPDATEF, !HPACCOUNT on MPE. On HP-UX, variable names are prefixed with a dollar sign as in $HOME.
• The new Form command displays information about self-describing files created with programs such as Suprtool.
• Enter Set List Lines 999 to skip to a new page only on $page directives.
• To prevent Qedit from using halfbright, enter Set Halfbright Off.
• Use Lsort to sort lines. It can be abbreviated to lso, lsq (quiet), lst (template) and lsj (justify).
• Random names generated for scratchfiles and temporary Hold files can now have up to 240 characters and are referred to by their absolute pathnames.
• Qedit's Blockemulation mode takes advantage of the QCTerm terminal emulator from AICS Research.
• Qedit recognizes .pco as valid Cobol extension.
• The server notifies the Qedit for Windows client whenever it runs out of line numbers (Error: Too High).
• Qedit displays an error message if you try to use it as a Qedit for Windows server (-d argument) but the server module has not been enabled. In this case, the Qedit for Windows client is notified and displays an appropriate error message.

• MPE Change notice
• HP-UX Change notice

Qedit Version 5.4

• Search with a string range (from stringA to string B).
• DeleteJ prompts for verification of each line to be deleted.
