< TECO (the archaic yet nice editor) written by DEC had an operating system
< (shell) command that was called MAKE.  If one typed "MAKE XXX" to the
< operating system, the system would enter the editor and create the file named
< XXX. In addition the bug/feature that the system included said in response to
< "MAKE LOVE", "Not War?".   Is this a bug/feature?, I don't know.  Anyone at
< DEC have anything to suggest?  I believe it was because TECO was written in
< the sixties.  Please respond to me via mail (or post the reply if it is
< of general enough interest).  Thanks for all the YASSC jokes -- very good.
