Other acme implementations

• A graphical text editor. "A is a text editor inspired by the Sam and Acme text editors for the Plan 9 operating system." (Implemented in Go Lang)

The idea lives on:

• An acme style editing plugin for the micro editor
• Anvil Editor. "Anvil is a graphical, multi-pane tiling editor that makes bold use of the mouse and integrates closely with the shell. It supports syntax highlighting, multiple cursors and selections, remote file editing, and contains a powerful text manipulation language. Anvil is inspired by Acme."
• ad :: an adaptable text editor
  • "ad (pronounced A.D.) is an attempt at combining a modal editing interface of likes of vi and kakoune with the approach to extensibility of Plan9's Acme. Inside of ad text is something you can execute as well as edit."
