TDP is Text and Document Processor. It is the old LARC editor. It is like
EDIT/3000 with documentation formatting commands added. It still comes on
the FOS tape.

If you can't buy the best, Qedit or even better Qedit for Windows, then
you will have to use what is on your system. Quad and Edit/3000 work
fine. Been using them for over 20 years.
