Configuring HPDesk

To change the default editor in HPDesk, you need to modify your individual Profile. To do this, enter HPDesk as you usually would. From the main menu (choice 0), select option 10 (Admin.). From the administration menu, select F2 (Profile). From the profile menu, select F2 again (Next Options). You should see a screen similar to:

  Edit and Create Options  Entry method for creating messages/comments ...   [ ]  Entry method for creating text items ...          [ ]  Editor for editing text items                     [ ]      Values can be:      1. Line by line text entry      2. Screen text entry      3. Slate editor      4. HPWORD or screen for non-HP terminals      5. External editor

You must make two sets of changes to this menu. First, enter “Qedit.Pub.Robelle” as the external editor (value 5). Second, change each of the three editor options to 5, then press Enter. After your changes, the screen should look like the following:

  Edit and Create Options  Entry method for creating messages/comments ...   [5]  Entry method for creating text items ...          [5]  Editor for editing text items                     [5]      Values can be:      1. Line by line text entry      2. Screen text entry      3. Slate editor      4. HPWORD or screen for non-HP terminals      5. External editor Qedit.Pub.Robelle
