If you change "prefer" to "dislike less," then me :) I still use emacs for some things that I haven't figured out how to get vim to do. Xemacs has extra buttons on the screen, which take up screen space. The last line on the terminal in vi takes more than enough, I don't want to give up even more . . . also, using emacs on CCIE (*Control Key In Exile) keyboard, causing enough long reaches on my little finger sthat I had to see a quack, is probably part (put a minor part) of my avoiding either. I want to do it, whatever "it" is, with as few keystrokes as possible, and without my keys leaving the keyboard to grab a mouse (though I use it to cut & paste for editing.) And I want *all* of my screen real estate, so I stay away from xemacs (and anything made by microsoft after about '93) hawk --
