TEDIT/TEW

TEDIT is a powerful on-line text editor for use in the CA-IDMS & CA-ADS environment. With TEDIT, textual data and entities stored in the integrated data dictionary (IDD) can be edited.

TEDIT can operate as a stand-alone program, or it can be integrated into any CA-ADS application that requires text editing capabilities. When functioning as part of an application, data can be read from the application database, passed to TEDIT and, after editing by the end-user, written back to the database.

TEDIT with the ISPF-Plus Option is compatible with the Interactive System Productivity Facility/Program Development Facility (ISPF/PDF) Editor, available in the MVS/TSO and VM/CMS environment.

TEDIT/Workbench is an ISPF-like, menu-driven environment for CA-IDMS/ADS programmers - both developers and DBAs. It allows powerful, yet easy to use access (for viewing, updating, creating and compiling) to dictionary entities through menus and lists, thus facilitating a standardized complete environment for DBAs and ADS application programmers.

Without TEDIT/Workbench you would access the different entities in various ways, using a variety of tools and environments.

TEDIT/Workbench standardizes all access through menus and lists, making it easier to develop and maintain applications. The lists may consist of all entities of a certain type, the most recently used (MRU) entities, entities meeting user-specified criteria (through the SEARCH option) or those referencing a specific entity (through the CROSS REFERENCE option). This allows you to easily access entities of your choice without having to remember their full identification. It simplifies the process and improves productivity.
