Visual Mode

Qedit has a Line mode and two full-screen modes: Visual mode and Screen mode. Visual mode is designed for HP terminals such as the 700/92, PCs running an emulator such as Reflection, or "hpterm" running on a UNIX workstation or X-terminal. If you are using another brand of CRT or a generic terminal emulator (ANSI, VT100), Visual mode will not work. Screen mode is designed for VT terminals, such as VT100 and VT220. Other terminal types may also work with Screen mode.

By default, Qedit assumes that you have an HP-compatible terminal. However, you can direct Qedit to identify your HP terminal by exporting the variable RCRTMODEL with value 2. Or you can export three variables that define the version of your terminal (see Variables that Drive Qedit).
