I had done a few related things to some of these, in some of the programs that I had written. I also think that there is a benefit of emulation especially if it is not overly complicated, that the program can run on many computers. I also think that there is the benefit for the computer to be understandable. I may later consider some of the other stuff, such as game that only persists 64-bits. > Properly handling unicode, syntax highlighting, cursor movement, multi-buffer support, panes/windows, tabs, search/find functionality, LSP support, etc. You do not need all of these things to make up a text editor. What I would like to have better is a text editor and GUI with better support for non-Unicode text. A feature they didn't mention, that I find useful, is being able to send some text to an external program and replace it with the result; I do sometimes use this feature in vi.
