MS-DOS Editor

You can use the MS-DOS Editor (EDIT.EXE) or any text editor to create your source programs, but you will not be able to perform the specialized functions built into the visual development environment such as multi-file searches, and your source code will not be displayed with syntax coloring.

You invoke the MS-DOS Editor by typing EDIT followed by the name of the file you want to edit. For example:

  EDIT test.f90
