TeXShell is a set of macros offering a full environment where   you
can work within. This version for VM/CMS tries to create a similar   en-
vironment of TeXShell for MSDOS. Using TeXShell you'll save time because
you can print, compose and issue a preview from a single screen.
 
     There are three special jobs:
 
         (1) Pressing  PF2 key  under TeXSHELL  environment you'll  get a
menu with TeX/LaTeX commands. Pressing the respective PF-key, the command
will be placed on the cursor position.  This set of macros was written by
Freilich   Oded   (P84021   at  BARILVM.BITNET),   Bar-Ilan   University.
 
         (2) A  scheme  to deal  with  errors  using TEXLOG  file:  under
LOGVIEW  environment,  pressing PF4  key  will  carry you  exactly  where
the error was found by TeX. PF5  key does the same but to LaTeX warnings.
 
         (3) A case sensitive HELP. When you put the cursor on a word and
press PF1 you'll get a LaTeX help. The help source is from George Greenwa-
de.
 
     The default  configuration of  TeXShell is  to our  system (BRFUEM).
I  guess  you'll not  find  troubles  in  configure  it to  your  system.
Change the files: PREVIEW.XEDIT, PRINTTEX.XEDIT and TEXSHELL.CONFIG.
 
      I intend to put ''configuration menus'' in the next version and to
improve the on line help|
 
      It's right that TeXShell for VM/CMS has a lot of bugs but I  think
putting it to cyberspace is the best way to remove them!
 
      Any bugs/suggestion can be send to
