Heh!

Considering how easy it is to deploy a multi-line edit widget in any
GUI toolkit, it shouldn't be too hard to write a GUI text editor. Now,
writing a *good* GUI text editor, that's a bit harder. And of course,
writing a text/console text editor, that's also less simple. But I put
it to you: How do you write your editor up to the point where you can
use it to write your editor? We have a bootstrapping problem!
