There's no Xved on windows - until someone provides graphical
facilities for windows poplog.

If you start pop-11, you will get a colon prompt. From that
prompt commands like

    help vedkeys

    teach eliza

    ved myfile

etc. should all work. You'll get a "dumb terminal" version of Ved,
in which you can view at most two files at a time. See

    TEACH BUFFERS

You may have a lot of trouble getting Ved to recognize the
function keys on your keyboard. So looking at the Emacs-like
facilities described in HELP VEDKEYS could be useful, especially

        ^G  Enter a command                             ENTER
    ESC ^G  Switch to/from command line                 SWITCHSTATUS
ESC RETURN  Redo command on command line                REDOCOMMAND

Also
     ESC m  Mark start of range                         MARKLO
     ESC M  Mark end of range                           MARKHI
     ESC C  Mark the current procedure                  ENTER mcp

     ESC g  Go to start of marked range                 MARKFIND
     ESC G  Go to end of marked range                   ENDRANGE

If you make good progress, post what you have discovered to
comp.lang.pop, as others may find it useful.
