on 02021-02-20Bernie Greenberg’s #history of Multics #Emacs, which was the first Lisp Emacs, including a lot of context about text editing and #UX in the 1970s, and explaining the kinds of #performance concerns they had: “The buffer being edited is defined by about two dozen Lisp variables of the basic editor... The alternate approach to multiple buffers would have been to have the buffer state variables referenced indirectly through some pointer which is simply replaced to change buffers. This approach, in spite of not being feasible in Lisp, is less desirable than the current approach, for it distributes cost at variable reference time, not buffer-switching time, and the former is much more common.”
