This makes me nostalgic for the days when emacs was disparagingly said to be an acronym for Eight Megs And Constantly Swapping. Eight hundred megs for a code editor would have been unimaginable back then.

Emacs is still available and constantly improving. I use it in parallel with VS Code and Vim and I must say that no other editor is better at manipulating text, vim included.
