    TECO was (is) an awesome editor - especially when the macros were used (36 buffers called "Q" registers could hold text or commands) - I created a complete mail merge / reporting system about 20 years ago. You could create commands on the fly, store them in one of the "Q" registers and then execute them. I even ported the editor to a Signetics 2650 microprocessor system using only about 14KB of RAM - which left about 20KB for text. :-D I still use a PC version of the DEC editor EDT - mostly because it creates a Journal file of all of the editing steps that can be recalled if the PC locks up or crashes.
