Ah, TECO - now there was a real editor. Looked like complete gibberish,
which reminds me of this old article :
http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/real.programmers.html
A guy I worked with wrote a TECO macro to search through all our source code
in all directories to do a global search/replace of a function call he
wanted to changed. Doesn't sound too hard today, using sed or other global
search/replace editors, but it was pretty impressive for the time....
I quickly learned about vtteco and started using it, though. Similar to the
visual mode of edt, but I liked it better.
