Unusual Text Editors
A bunch of editors that I've found that are kinda unusual. My loose criteria for this list is the following:
- It bucks normal linear editing
- It's a unusual spin on a old editor (like ACME or ed)
- It's designed to be an art project / esöeditor
- A stacklang is somehow involved
- It makes me go "That's Neat"
The Editors
