TOTO
TOTO (Terminal Oriented Text Organizer) was an interactive text editor authored by Randal Schwartz in HP 2000 BASIC for Superior Software Services in the mid-1970s.
Representing Randal's first paid commercial programming contract, the editor was playfully named TOTO so that the subsequent feature update could be officially christened TOTO II ("Toto, too!").

These facts are as Randal recalls them, but much time has passed for most of this. If you find a factual error, please email realmerlyn@gmail.com.
