|  VMTXED  | CA MICS CMS Edit Procedure
+----------+

VMTXED edits files in CMS.  The file is edited, using XEDIT
in update mode, to generate a file containing separate
changes.

FORMAT

    VMTXED fname <ftype> < ( CTL ctlfn >

    where:

    fname      - is the filename of a CMS file to be edited.
    ftype      - is the filetype of the file to be edited.
                 If it is not specified, one of the filetypes
                 below is used.
    ctlfn      - is the control file name.  Default:  VMTCTL


CONTROL FILE

The default control file is VMTCTL CNTRL.  It identifies the
updates to be applied to the base source (if any exist).


FILE TYPES

The file types supported by VMTXED are:

    ASSEMBLE  -  input to the ASSEMBLE command
    MACRO     -  input to the MACLIB command
    COPY      -  input to the MACLIB command
    $EXEC     -  input to the EXECUPDT command
    $XEDIT    -  input to the EXECUPDT command
    GENLIST   -  input to the VMTGEN command
    SELECT    -  input to VMTXMIT (VMTSEL)
    VMTMSG    -  input to VMTMSG EXEC
    $MAIHLP   -  input to VMTHLP EXEC (HELP files)
    SCREEN    -  input to VMTDSP XEDIT (display screens)

The file is searched for using the file types in the order
listed above.  This means that if XX MACRO and XX COPY both
exist, the file XX MACRO is the file edited.

These file types and others are supported by the sample XEDIT
profile macro, distributed as VMTPRFX $XEDIT.
