Too bad Emacs doesn’t have a good text editor.

Modalka for me. It has exactly what you want and no more, which also makes it a lot easier to learn: useful for me that I’m not a programmer.

eMacs takes a life time to learn, so the sooner you start, the longer it will take.

I couldn’t help but think of Emacs when I was reading A Constructive Look At TempleOS. It’s like TempleOS that is actually finished, it just lacks kernel.

just lacks kernel.

Sounds like a trademark of GNU tbh

I’m sure the port to TempleOS is being worked on as we speak

Thanks for sharing. I have never seen that deep dive into templeOS before and it is a much more interesting OS than I anticipated.

Yeah it’s pretty amazing system all things considered. It’s kind of as if 8-bit home computer systems continued to evolve, but keep the same principles of being really closely tied to the HW and with very blurry line between kernel and user space. It radiates strong user ownership of the system. If you look at modern systems where you sometimes don’t even get superuser privileges (for better of worse) it’s quite a contrast.

Which is why it reminds me of Emacs so much. You can mess with most of the internals, there’s no major separation between “Emacs-space” and userspace. There are these jokes about Emacs being OS, but it really does remind me of those early days of home computing where you could tinker with low level stuff and there were no guardrails or locks stopping you.
