Slightly updated wording in https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs-paper.html

Current version of Wikipedia Emacs article:

Interesting, but nothing about E: http://www.lysator.liu.se/history/garb/txt/87-1-emacs.txt |
^R mode first seen in .INFO.; TECO ORDER, dated 1972-09-14. A selection from the documentation shows a nascent Emacs command set was already in place:
Mikkelsen's CMMSW can be seen in SYSENG; TECO 335 from 1972-11-06, until NTECO 108 from 1973-03-05:
However, in TECO 368 from 1973-09-20, Stallman has rewritten the ^R code.
This can also be seen in SYSENG; TECO 379 from 1973-12-04: CMMSW has been replaced with RMSSW |
Richard Stallman recounts being inspired by the E editor while visiting the Stanford AI project. Collecting some notes here.
