I decided to mess around a little to see if my editors were having any problems, and I noticed one little point of contention between them. In Emacs, if I ask for help on zippy, it tells me about apropos-zippy and insert-zippyism. However, if I do :help zippy in vim, it tells me there is no help for zippy! That's not very nice. Well, I suppose it is true, though. -- -CraigW NOW, I'm taking the NEXT FLIGHT to ACAPULCO so I can write POEMS about BROKEN GUITAR STRINGS and sensuous PRE-TEENS!! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
