  Text Editor and Corrector - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
TECO (pronounced /tee'koh/; originally an acronym for [paper] Tape Editor and COrrector, but later Text Editor and COrrector) was a text editor developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the 1960s and was modified by 'just about everybody'.
An early editor for the PDP-1 was (officially!) named "Expensive Typewriter." Written by Stephen D. Piner, it was the most rudimentary imaginable line-oriented editor, lacking even search-and-replace capabilities.
The only way to observe the state of the text during the editing process was to type in commands that would cause the text (or portions thereof) to be typed out on the console typewriter.

 Line editor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Commands and text, and corresponding output from the editor, will scroll up from the bottom of the screen in the order that they are entered or printed to the screen.
The UNIX editor ed (UNIX) is a classic example of a line editor, and is still in use; DOS users would be familiar with Edlin.
They are also frequently seen in many MUD systems, though many people prefer to edit text on their own computer and then use their MUD client's upload feature to paste the text directly in the line editor.

Since TECO is a character-oriented editor rather than a line editor, text edited with TECO does not have line numbers associated with it, nor is it necessary to replace an entire line of text in order to change one character.
Text is read from the input file into the text buffer, and is written from the buffer onto the output file.
Once a page of text has been written onto the output file, it cannot be recalled into the text buffer unless the output file is closed and reopened as an input file.

The QED text editor, for instance, was first coded for an SDS 940 running the Berkeley time-sharing system (qv) by Butler Lampson and Peter Deutsch as early as 1967.
Two of the earliest and most important Unix text editors were “ed” and “vi.” Ken Thompson of Bell Laboratories wrote “Ed” for the DEC PDP-7 minicomputer.
Another important contemporaneous text editor for time-sharing systems was the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s TECO (Tape Editor and Corrector, and later, Text Editor and Corrector).

Emacs (originally for “Editor Macros,” and later “Extensible Macro System”) is a display and text editor (qv) distributed as free software (qv) by Richard Stallman and the GNU Project (qv).
The most basic feature of Emacs is that of allowing the user to type and edit text in near real-time on the full screen as in modern word processing.
The existing editor on ITS was TECO (qv), the Text Editor and Corrector language.

Then seven text buffer pointer positions are determined as shown by the arrows in the following figure: F O O B A R _^ _^ _^ _^ _^ _^ _^ 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Note that there are 6 characters in the buffer and that the highest numbered pointer position is 6.
When the text buffer pointer is at the end of the text buffer and the last character of the buffer is an end-of-line character, then the current line is an empty string according to the definition just given.

A powerful and sophisticated text editor, TECO (Text Editor and Corrector) was initially implemented at MIT using a graphics display.
As the sophistication of users was later perceived to decline, the powerful editor created training and use problems.
Thus, a family of line- and character-oriented editors evolved which was easier to learn and remember.

 Epistemologically Multiple Actor-Centred System: or, EMACS at work!
Instead of typing commands when editing texts, the TECO editor enabled users to employ macros, command strings for a cluster of TECO programmes, which provided a more immediate onscreen feedback for users.
It is said that this improvement was subtle but significant in that this raised TECO to the level of a user-programmable WYSIWYG editor, which later on enabled innovation at another meta level that became the progenitor of FLOSS (Williams 2002: 82).
It is worth noting that Stallman did not sit down and write the editor system programme immediately after his encounter with E. Instead, he looked up the database and found that Mikkelson had made a WYSIWYG feature for TECO.
