Understandable, but you missed the last paragraph of the abstract, which reads, "This paper is reprinted from Software—Practice and Experience, Vol 17, number 11, pp. 813-845, November 1987. The paper has not been updated for the Plan 9 manuals. Although Sam has not changed much since the paper was written, the system around it certainly has. Nonetheless, the description here still stands as the best introduction to the editor." (You're not the only one to miss things like this, I do it all the time.)
