Enjoyable Wiki with not only details of lots of editors classic and
modern, but some history and stories which I found really interesting.

It says TECO is Tape Editor and COrrector. I have always known it to be
Text Editor and Corrector. Have I been wrong all these years?
Great site by the way, looks like there could be a lot to explore.

Rob

When Dan Murphy wrote the first TECO for the PDP-1 around 1962, it was
