Reminded me of CygnusED, which apparently has even a working website[1]. I really wish the core idea of ARexx had become popular enough.

There was another editor for the Amiga, possibly only known to the users of Matt Dillon's DICE compiler, that integrated so well with ARexx that at a certain time I suspect ARexx code surpassed the core C code. The name's DME and the source is still available.

I can't agree more on the beauty of a OS-endorsed scripting language embeddable in every application! Lua might take that role one day...

CygnusED’s speed made it feel unlike any other editor. Brilliant engineering!
