His idea of a user interface included that the program should KNOW

One of my heroes.
I've never used a Cat or his other software UIs, but the demos I've
seen are enough to make me wonder at how much we have lost already,
and secondarily, if it would be possible to code up a Raskin-style

It's about the only editor I know that's smart enough and programmable
enough. Unfortunately, I also find it horrible to use and don't know
how to do this.
