I noticed that no one has  mentioned Gosling's C Emacs for UNIX  (TM)
which supports BOTH modes  of operation -  where the characters  that
run past your right margin are  truncated at that column, OR  wrapped
onto the next line.  (This is a switch setting.)

I also  was wondering,  anyone ever  think of  implementing ITS  TECO
under UNIX or VMS?

The C Emacs most emphatically does not support both modes of operation.  It
can truncate lines, but it doesn't have horizontal scrolling and the
semantics of moving the point past the end of a screen line are not well
defined. That's not support, it's a crock.

Yes, I agree that the mentioned C Emacs *IS* a crock.  The point  was
brought up to POINT OUT that it  was a crock - and that Gosling  (you
listening out there  James?) might CONSIDER  that sort of  horizontal
scrolling as a part of TRUNCATION.

I don't  know any  terminal  besides  this  "SUN" terminal  that  can
HARDWARILY handle HORIZONTAL scrolling.   I have seen  it done on the
OSBORNE-1 micro though...
