heh, I figured that "still uses" was the wrong phrasing to use on this
list :)
Probably.
One reason to stop is that it only runs on VMS (at
least I think so, and
I'm only counting modern systems here). The editor I use runs on VMS,
*nix and windows, which is nice. Still I have learned a few other
editors for systems that don't have my editor of choice installed.
Of course not. EDT runs just fine on both TOPS-20, RSX, RSTS/E and
probably something else that I'm forgetting... What's your definition of
"modern"? I think Unix is older than all of the above mentioned systems. :)
