Some of the folks running TOPS-20 under emulated PDP-10s have teco
emacs from the late 70s in use.  Why?  Maybe Gnu Emacs doesn't run or
would need porting, maybe they don't have a good C compiler, maybe
they just like the historical feel of it.  If you're looking for
further info, you could add alt.sys.pdp10 and I'm sure someone would
know more.
