Agreed! The TPU facility is _definitely_ a major improvement over EDT. It
allows you to virtually write your own editor, or add extensions with ease.

The pattern-matching routines are fast, flexible, and easy to use.

Best of all, it can handle almost any file organization that you can create
with RMS -- a definite plus. The only other editor that I've personally seen
that compares is emacs, and it is very large (code-size wize).

I'll NEVER go back to EDT.
