Hello world!

I'm looking for a program to simplify editing while using the OS/2 command
prompt.

Normally the keys F1, F2 and F3 can be used to copy previous commands and
re-execute them. But it's not bloody likely.

Is there a program available to simplify this process?

I already have a program called DOSEDIT.COM (running in DOS-mode). When this
program is installed, you can use ARROW UP to insert previously entered
commands.

I'm looking for a program like this running in protected mode. Can someone
tell me if it is available and where I can get it.

Thanks,

Matthijs van Doorn
