EDIT: A FORTRAN Program Maintenance System for the Texas Instruments ASC-7,

Paul Morawski

Abstract

EDIT is a MACRO program for automatic maintenance of FORTRAN and RATFOR (Rational FORTRAN) programs on the Texas Instruments Advanced Scientific Computer. It has been used extensively to accelerate the creation of complex fluid dynamics programs for execution on the Advanced Scientific Computer (ASC). EDIT allows the user to more efficiently create and modify programs using the TI-supplied Source Managment System, SMS. Object libraries and load modules may also be automatically updated. The program files (source, object, and load module) have a user-specified number of versions retained as backup. The files may be tape or disk resident. The EDIT system is described and sample usages are presented. (Author)
