Recently, I acquired a Zorba CP/M machine, which was my first back in the 80s. I had forgotten how simple but kind of clunky ED was, and didn’t know any backstory of it until now. Really fun! I’m trying to stay true to vim, but it’s hard with sublime text and all the intellij tools right there.
- bmonkey325 158 days agoFirst. Congratulations. I’m very envious. I’ve only ever been Zorba adjacent but always fascinated by the device. MicroEmacs is supposed to be good. I used vedit but lord knows if it’s still available.
- benmca 149 days agoThx! I have a second Zorba in need of a recap on the display board - email if you’re interested (email address is in my profile.)
