I have learned more than that. I previously mentioned VTED, our local TECO-based editor back in my first/second-year days. I even implemented a similar editor, in Pascal, for a third-year programming project. Then EDT on the VAX (spit). Then TPU/EVE (yay). There was something called VEW on a Wicat, or was it CTOS, system at my first post-graduation job (see how little I remember of it). MPW on the Macintosh, which I preferred to CodeWarrior. Then vi, because that was the only thing you could be sure would be present on every proprietary Unix system. Then when Unix was pushed aside by Linux, and I could be sure Emacs would always be available, I switched to that.
