Wasn't this related (somehow) to what was called the RAND editor?
I remember using "e" on IS/1, a V6 derivative on the PDP-11, in
the 1980-81 time frame. I don't know if it was hardwired for a
particular terminal or not. The ones we had at my school had some
smarts in them, you could do simple bitmap graphics. Someone wrote
a "Space Invaders" game for them. I don't remember what brand they
were.
