I'm about to begin the process of designing a new editor.  Has anyone reading
this group read any good design texts or (more likely) published papers on the
subject of editor design?  References to code examples and the like are NOT
what I'm interested in.  I'm interested in issues related to the design of
extensible editors.

My ultimate goal of course is to start up a whole new thread of "Mike's Most 
Wonderful and Graciously Provided Editor From Northern Idaho" is MUCH better
than vi or emacs, because it's _name_ is much longer and...

Really folks, if you've seen what I'm looking for, send me e-mail and I'll compile
a bib and post it here.
