Well... not Linux -- but Unix in general. Hit google for teco and Unix
and source and you hit a number of versions. Pete Siemsen had one
http://sunsite.tus.ac.jp/pub/academic/computer-science/history/pdp-11/teco/tecoc-146/
This directory contains TECO-C, a version of TECO written in C.
It was written in C so the author could move comfortably from VAX/VMS
to various other machines, including MicroVaxes, which couldn't execute
TECO-11 prior to VMS 5.0 because they don't support PDP-11 compatibility
mode. TECO32, distributed with v5.0, solved this problem.
And there are others...
