Years ago I used to repair PC's (Back when you had

choice was the MSDOS EDLIN tool. Without fail, every client who
watched me working asked why I didn't use QEDIT34 or ExtraED98 or
"InsertAwesomeEditorNameHere", to which I would always reply - 'you
may have "InsertAwesomeEditorNameHere", but I can never guarantee
the next client will have it, so I got good at using the standard
editor!
I just carried around a copy of Turbo Pascal 3.0 on a floppy.
