Is there such an editor?
gvim is one example. It doesn't save (in the file) such things as
command-line history, cursor position, hilite state, last search,
window size and position, numerous option settings, etc. Many of those
--- especially the command line history --- can be quite useful.
I imagine emacs, being bloated, has far more.
