CED ^U patch

If you work on VAX or a 4.2bsd machine you're probably used to typing ^U
(that Ctrl-U!) to delete the current line.  MS-DOS added this feature in
3.1, then took it away again almost immediately.  Some people have posted
patches to put it back in 3.1, but I think this is a better idea:  use CED
with the patch supplied below!

Run this message through uudecode to get cedcuesc.arc, then download
cedcuesc.arc to your PC using a binary protocol like XMODEM or Kermit in
SET FILE TYPE BINARY mode.  Run the file through ARC and you'll get two
files -- CEDCU.BAT and CEDCUESC.BAT.  You'll need to put CED.COM version 1.0C
in the same directory, then run one of these two batch files.  CEDCU.BAT
will create a CEDCU.COM which looks for ^U _instead_ of ESCape; CEDCUESC.BAT
will create CEDCUESC.COM which looks for either ^U or ESCape.  I prefer the
former because I like to be able to directly key in escape sequences to send
to my printer directly, but take your pick...

(I put a few comments in the batch files which might explain what's going on!)

Let me know if it works out...
