By the way, in SciTECO you *can* write MI$$ with dollar signs. Not that you need any kind of command line termination in order to execute macro `I` - that would happen immediately the moment you type `I`. But dollar-dollar would terminate the command line just like Escape-Escape would. The reason is that I made dollar synonymous to Escape as a regular command (not as a string terminator). And Escape-Escape is a regular command in SciTECO instead of an immediate editing construct as it was in classic TECOs. This also means, you don't have to fear accidentally terminating a command line when pressing two Escapes in a row in order to pass an empty string argument. FRfoo$$ is completely safe in SciTECO - the escapes are part of the FR syntax. Only afterwards, parsing resumes with regular commands. So to delete with FR and terminate the command line, you would have to write FRfoo$$$$. But you don't terminate the command line often. You can edit an entire day without $$. The process will grow in size, but it's still a fraction of VS Code, I guarantee you that.
