you need a character buffer. it will hold all your text. you need a pointer to determine what section you are displaying of the text both vertically and horizontally. you need some kind of interface so that a person can use it.

This little editor was published in the PC Magazine. It was written in assembley language. Source code and documentation are
included.

I reckon that a file/text editor should be the first project any newbie does once they know a bit about assembly.
A kind of advanced hello world program
Everything you learn from that one project can be carried into almost anything at all.
