Line Editor

Overview

A throwback to the ancient days of computing. A line editor is an editor program, similar to what we have today, but with the ability to work only on one line at a time. Before we could just draw wherever we wanted on the screen all the time (even so far back as tele-type inputs), we could only work on a single line. So we had to make do.

Line editors are awful, awful things. But it's nice to know how far we've come since then.
