It indeed uses the numeric keyboard a lot (e.g  PF4 = delete line and store in buffer, PF3=search next, 8=paragraph down, -=delete word etc.) Another feature was the use of 'PF1' key (better know as GOLD key) on the VAX terminal keyboard (on a PC keyboard that is now the numlock key). PF1 is used in edt in conjunction with the numeric keys as well as the character keys, e.g PF1 PF3 = search, PF1 PF4 = past line from buffer, PF1 I is include, PF1 Z is exit etc. As such is was a normal key on the VAX keyboard not a toggle key as it is on the PC keyboard. At some point John Davis managed to make jed such that it can use the numlock key just as the gold key (variable NUMLOCK_IS_GOLD in edt.sl); so he might help you out on this issue as well.

Thanks for the explanation. Now I know more or less what I have to do.
I will look at John's code and try to replicate the behaviour in FL-Jed.
