No -- in my mind the consensus is that we take one of two steps: a) keep ae, but remove the vi emulation mode -- I haven't seen anyone claim that ae sans emulation mode is good enough. The list seems to agree, the ae maintainer agrees, and it's easy to implement, so I suggest this is the course of action we take. b) replace ae with something else, the only real contender AFAICT being 'ee' Dale, do you agree with (a)? Should we just go with that? -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
