Well, none that I can remember or offer. I last used TECO about 10 years ago (I thought nobody used it anymore!), when I worked for a small medical research firm. I used macros for *everything*. My best single macro was written when we were only a couple of months away from shipping, and asked our secretary to type up the manual in a print-ready format. Well, in order to do that, she needed a word processor. So I wrote one, in a TECO macro. It didn't do much, just word-wrap and justification, but it *was* a word processor. -Garison-
