I've only come across one editor that was worse than EDLIN. It was the line editor on Pr1me computers. We had a few of those systems at work. As I recall, you could only jump to the top or bottom of the file or use relative jumps. You couldn't jump directly to a specific line. =-O
Forgot to mention, the first editor I used was SCELBI's "ED", a simple line editor, which was better than that Pr1me editor. I used ED on my IMSAI 8080. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCELBI https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMSAI_8080
