Thanks for the pleasant surprise of encouraging feedback. I’m going to send this comment chain to my email inbox so that I can find it later. This is great.

It’s such a monumental task to hack on the basics of the text editing. I listened to a tts book; I think it was titled “The Art of the Text Editor” that delved a bit into some of the original philosophy of the text rendering etc. in Emacs. You might enjoy it If you ever need a boring book to read.

You probably mean The Craft of Text Editing -or- A Cookbook for an Emacs. I've skimmed it a bit before and it's on my reading list. First I'm still working my way through CRLS's Introduction to Algorithms and Aspnes' Notes on Data Structures and Programming Techniques.
