From:

I did run across a minor bug last night in the editor. I was doing some
text inserting and deleting just before the last line of the program, and
that last line suddenly replicated itself a few times. I believe it
occured wh I deleted some text; the line moved up, but a copy of it stayed
below. This seemed to be a presentational problem rather than an actual
garbling of the text file; I scrolled those lines off the screen, then back
on, and the extra last lines disappeared.

I agree that the editor should be released by itself. It makes a nice,
standard, plain-vanilla editor for programs and data files. I'll be
interested to see if the exact same editor is released with Modula-2 and
the official version of the assembler/debugger. I guess the latter may
keep the TRANSFER menu.
