Copyright (c) 1987,1988 by Software Research Associates, Inc. FEP is a general purpose front end for any line-oriented command on UNIX. This command was developed on Berkeley UNIX, but will probably run on most UNIX system which have pseudo tty and the select system call. Making FEP Just type 'make'. If your system is running ASCII UNIX or some compatible system, the -DKANJI flag makes fep handle kanji character input. Using FEP See man page fep.1 for detail. The help command (ESC-?) and show-bindings command (^X-^B) are very convenient when running fep. Distribution Distribution without fee is permitted as long as all copyright notices are included. Any comments will be greatly appreciated. Have fun.

[Sunday, Apr 14, 1991] I have now fixed fep to the point where it is usable on NeXT without a problem. Many thanks especially to gerrit (I don't dare spelling your last name) without whose help I would never have succeeded. Many thanks also to Kazumasa for writing such an extraordinarily helpful program. For those who do not know: fep is a program that adds Emacs-style editing commands to any program. It is particularly useful for such programs as the command-line version of mathematica, ftp, telnet, etc. Try fep ftp and you will see. Enjoy. /ivo welch ivo@next.agsm.ucla.edu
