This sounds an awful lot like CED, a PD command line editor.  There
are a number of switches and a parameter file that can be specified on
the command line.  I am not sure what these are since I now use PCED,
the commercial version of CED.  If you can't find the docs, drop me a
note and I'll dig around.

P.S. Follow-ups are directed to comp.sys.ibm.pc where they belong.
