Abstract

In response to the needs of students taking introductory programming classes, we have a created a syntax generating editor. This simple to use and reasonably powerful editor helps students avoid syntax errors and also greatly eases and speeds the typing of programs. This is especially true in Modula-2 where the frequent need to change between upper and lower case places exhausting demands on even good typists. Changes in a configuration file allow the editor to work with a number of different programming languages. The editor is written in Pascal and runs under VAX/VMS. Source code, executable code, and documentation are available over the Internet.
