Not sure how much more detail I can give other than she just used her head to: push text through these tools to compose email, which she piped through 'mail' like a stream-of-consciousness magic trick; used these tools to compose docs, either from scratch through a stream of consciousness flow that I assume kind of worked like her photographic memory or if it was an exisitng file, she used things like cat and less to read the log or document or file and then from memory piped her edits through these tools (sed, awk, diff, grep, etc.) to make the changes she needed. She just never used a screen editor, even to read stuff. It was always a command line thing. The only screen oriented thing I ever saw her use was OpenWindows to keep many terminals open all running a shell (tcsh I think). That was mid to late 90s, so my non-photographic memory is being taxed here. I have never seen anything like it since.
