Not only supported, but still under very active development!
Further, your reluctance to use non-screen-oriented
editors is,
shall we say, 'bad juju' in this community. While I certainly
prefer a screen editor such as vi (and not such as EMACS), I can
easily do ed or TECO as needed, because I MUST in order to work
with truly vintage systems. -- Ian

His idea of "way back" is pretty different from yours or mine.
