I had a brief flirtation with THE (The Hessling Editor) when I was in college.
It was programmable in Rexx. I found it fascinating but ultimately moved on to Vim and Emacs as my daily drivers.

Vim and Emacs are part of standard toolsets in a wider base of organizations, so if you've bounced around, they would be more useful. Also, THE doesn't handle unicode very well, so that presents a decreasing window for application as unicode becomes more wide spread.
Meanwhile, The Hessling Editor, continues to be downloaded from SourceForge and has active forums.
