RE: Locking down SEU exit parameters

["Jonathan Mason" <jonathan.mason@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Michael

My first thought was to write a subfile program to handle it, but I had
hoped to be able to use an existing text editor instead - hence SEU.  I
think Mark's idea of using the EDTF command is probably the way to go.

Thanks

Jonathan

That's a good idea Mark. My thought would be to load the information
into a subfile and let the user make changes. PITA for things like
wrapping and such, but it would work.
