But isn't eMacs a keyboard based editor with multi-keys to select the 
functions like Vin? One programs it in Lisp, an interesting language 
that I'm not familiar with so a big learning curve there beside keyboard 
use.

I been using Visual Studio Code Editor for Go and Python and it's OK but 
a file describing the language specifics is not available for Forth but 
one could create one. It's available for Windows, Linux, and MacOs, 
worse case that will be the choice and its a graphical editor so not as 
many keys to have to memorize.
