A line-based text editor for the PDP8 written by Chris Whitfield as his MSc project. His thesis is online at the link above.

The editor described was heavily influenced by both EDIT4 and ECCE (qv)

CRT based text editing was uncommon when this was created. The intended use was from a hardcopy terminal.
