BTW while pretty much every Interlisp-D user used D-edit, I was never comfortable with it because it required use of the mouse. By the time I started using Interlisp I had about six or seven years of Emacs wired into my fingers and didn't like being slowed down by taking my fingers off the keyboard.

There was an emacsy interface made by Kelly ??? in the office next to me which I extended into a real Emacs clone (with modes and everything) which a bunch of us used. In retrospect I should have gone native and adopted D-edit directly but what can I say I was a snot-nosed 20 year old kid.
