I maintain the DECUS TECO Collection,  which includes:

1. sources for DEC's TECO-11 v36
2. my TECO (no video) in C for VAX/VMS, MS-DOS, AmigaDOS and Unix
3. Matt Fichtenbaum's TECO for Ultrix and other Unixes (MS-DOS soon), with
   video
4. The May 1985 Standard TECO manual in RUNOFF-output form.  This is a newer
   version of the manual than DEC distributes.
5. All the TECO-related stuff from the DECUS Software Library
6. two EMACS-like macro packages.
7. various macros
8. various other documentation
9. Paul Cantrell's hybrid video TECO (executes TECO commands as you type
   them).  I have only an executeable for SunOS,  but Paul made it work
   on a Macintosh.
10. Bob Ankeney's TECO for 6502 machines (6502 assembly language).

You can anonymous ftp this stuff from usc.edu,  directory pub/teco.

If you can't anonymous ftp, I'll make you a VMS BACKUP 1/2-inch
9-track 6250 BPI tape or send parts on IBM-PC floppies.  Send me a
tape or a floppy (3-1/2 1.2mb or 5-1/4 1.4mb) and I'll send them back
with data.  If you only want a small part of it, like the 6502 TECO, I
can be talked into emailing.  I have made Sun tape cartridges in the
past,  and might be bothered to do it again.

Not in the Collection (yet):

There is another TECO written in 8086 assembly language for MD-DOS by
Jim Dempsey.  I have an executable.  It seems fast and complete.  Jim
is interested in distributing it a shareware once he thinks it's
ready, for a registration fee of $45.00.  Send me mail if interested.

Phil Wettersten has begun conversion of the Standard TECO manual to
TeX format, and done work on conditional processing so the manual can
be printed in a TECO-11 version, a TECO-8 version, a TECO-10 version,
etc.  This may form the basis of a general manual, if someone adds the
stuff for a TECO-C version, a Fichtenbaum-TECO version, etc.
