Emacs ​

Emacs is an interesting editor that I haven't checked out still.

This paints a pretty interesting picture of what Emacs really is. It is a programmable user interface with which you can do many things. One of these things is editing text.

Might give it a go sometime. Right now I love VSCode and find it plenty extendable.
