Choosing an Editor

Choose File Options in the main window to open the Options dialog box, where you can choose an editor for editing source code. The available editors are vi, gnuemacs, and xemacs.

vi and xemacs are installed with LoopTool into your install directory (usually /opt/SUNWspro/bin) if they're not already on your system. You must provide gnuemacs yourself. In all cases, the editor you want must be in a directory in your search path in order for LoopTool to find it. For example, your PATH environment variable should include /usr/local if that's where gnuemacs is located on your system.

For more information about choosing an editor see the WorkShop Online Help.
