An enhanced text interface for viewing or editing program commands stored in SES input files.

More Than a Simple Text Editor

The graphical user interfaces of SES software provide intuitive environments for users to input data and save the information in (.F05) input files.  Power users may also use a text editor to access their input data; this approach offers additional flexibility, and in some contexts provides a means to more rapidly review and modify input data. SES has developed this feature-rich text editor to facilitate this form of editing.
