111020 - Debug needs to support keyboard execution, like the current Medit
111021 - does for efficient usability.
111023 - ..
111024 - Morris seemed adament that keyboard support for the debug window in
111025 - the new Java Medit program is impossible, because the new version of
111026 - Java Medit is designed for efficient "window" operations that requires
111027 - using only the pointer (mouse).
111028 -
111029 - [On 100625 1527 Morris demonstrated that he developed keyboard
111030 - support the debug window in the new Java Medit program, very
111031 - similar to keyboard ops for debug in the original Medit
111032 - program. ref SDS 34 GG5F
111034 - ..
111035 - Explained advantages of pressing keys with left or right hand to
111036 - execute 1 commend at at time, or pressing and holding a key to execute
111037 - commands continuously to watch program processing in order to
111038 - understand effects of code and make corrections. These features for
111039 - efficient program development cannot be accomplished by clicking the
111040 - pointer with one hand for each command execution.
111042 - ..
111043 - Morris suggests adding a field in the debug window to set the number
111044 - of commands executed at once,e.g., 1, 5, 10. He also discusses adding
111045 - breakpoints, and step over macros, which are supported in Java.
111046 - Morris was emotional about limiting Medit and SDS development to
111047 - procedures everybody else uses to program other applications.
111049 - ..
111050 - We reviewed the record showing Morris spent a year using procedures
111051 - and tools for programming other applications, and he may achieved 5%
111052 - of SDS capabilities, reported last year on 081007 0700. ref SDS 8
111053 - XV9F
111055 - ..
111056 - Case study on 070126 shows everybody has given up on developing
111057 - Knowledge Management because the work is too difficult using popular
111058 - tools and practices. ref SDS 7 QH8L
111060 - ..
111061 - Morris feels that if Rod was smarter and willing to work harder, then
111062 - Knowledge Mangement could be developed using tools and practices
111063 - software engineers use for other applications, as Rod has done using
111064 - Medit to develop SDS, even though nobody has done it.
111066 - ..
111067 - Morris insists that keyboard processing for debug ops in the new Java
111068 - Medit debug window is impossible.
111070 - ..
111071 - Attr command does not work work well with other operating systems, and
111072 - Morris says pkzip is going away, and he can write anotehr program to
111073 - support confidentiality, so for now skipping....

111078 - Morris worked on insert off command.
111079 -
111080 - ioff............................ ref OF 2 8472
111082 - ..
111083 - This is is now effective, so it can be called in the profile to
111084 - control insert function.
111086 - ..
111087 - Morris started work on the compiler.
111088 -
111089 - compiler........................ ref OF 2 VR5L
111091 - ..
111092 - This needed as a predicate to wordwrap which uses wsplit that calls
111093 - macro 610. ref OF 2 RQSU
111094 -
111095 - [On 100428 1128 Morris upgraded compiler to process
111096 - ins_text command correctly in compiled macros. ref SDS 33
