QUOTE.TTP is a TTP program intended for use with the Edith Professional
text editing system.

---

SYNOPSIS

   QUOTE

   QUOTE <prefix>


DESCRIPTION

   QUOTE writes each line of its  standard input to its standard  output
   prefixing each line with  a short string.  This is especially  useful
   when answering Electronic Mail.

   When QUOTE.TTP is called without the <prefix> argument, lines will be
   prefixed with '> ',  otherwise lines will be prefixed with <prefix>.


BUGS

   From the Edith Filters  dialog, it is impossible  to create a  prefix
   (other than '> '), ending in a space character.


EXAMPLE

   To invoke QUOTE from the Edith system, select the text to be  quoted,
   such as

      Hello John,
      How are you?
      Fred.

   and  press  ALT  F2.  The result is:

      > Hello John
      > How are you?
      > Fred.

   A different prefix can  be set through the  'Filters' dialog (in  the
   ARGS field).
