The fact that you can get it to run on multiple types of terminals was absolutely essential to us at work back in the 1990’s. We had it running on VT52, ADM3A, and ADM22 terminals, as well as the Coco itself (all at the same time). It does take a bit to get used to if you are used to a full arrow key based text editor (like SLED), but it works on terminals, lets you edit files larger than it’s maximum buffer space (which is about 31K), and can adapt to different window/terminal sizes as well.
