Hi all,

So. On a lighter note. I was tooling around the web and came across a discussion of QED, the editor. It’s been resurrected in no small part based on discussions on this list (and members like Rob Pike). Anyhow, there’s a version that compiles in modern systems and that handles wide characters.

Does anyone know of any effort to show the family tree of editors, similar to what we have for unix and linux?
