The problem with most text editors is that if one has non-ASCII information,
it is impossible to have much of an idea of what things look like until it
is printed in some form.  When I am writing mathematical formulas, I want
to have some idea of what it looks like; at this point I am not interested
in the fine points.  I also want to be able to correct typographical errors;
I frequently think ahead of what I am typing, and for many reasons I hit 
wrong keys, even typing ASCII.

This sometimes even holds with ASCII.  I make no attempt to get columnar 
material lined up in TeX; it would take too long, and it would distract me
from the communications process.

We need processors to get good copy out.  But we need processors to get 
good copy in _before_ we need the ones to get it out.
