EMACS is all this and more. And the best implementation of EMACS,
Gnu EMACS, is free. Unfortunately, I can't use Gnu EMACS because
it's too big to run on an Intel pseudo-computer. But it is the best.
I use Jove, a very nice EMACS subset that's small enough and fast
enough to run on the Intel "architecture".
