Prerequisites And Recommendations HP EDIT runs on the HP 3000 under the MPE operating system. You can use HP EDIT on HP262x, HP239x and HP700/9x terminals (80-character mode only), or others that adhere to these terminal specifications. You can also access HP EDIT with personal computers using terminal emulation packages, such as AdvanceLink. In order to run, the HP EDIT program file must reside in a user group that has Process Handling (PH), Data Segment (DS), and Save File (SF) capabilities. If the software is placed in the PUB.SYS group, as recommended, this requirement should pose no problems. HP EDIT is not recommended for use in network environments that do not support a highly interactive dialog between the user and the host machine. This precludes networks, such as X.25, which have a large amount of lag time (greater than one-half second) and use separate transmissions for prompting and reading responses. It is also recommended that HP EDIT not be used on heavily loaded systems or those burdened with a large number of terminals.
