A comment on Why GNU Emacs?. Parent comment

Maybe GNU Emacs, because it was originally written for Unix. Emacs itself came from ITS/Teco. Lisp-based Emacs came from the MIT Lisp Machine (using Lisp Machine Lisp as implementation language) and Multics Emacs (using Maclisp as implementation language).
