Do not know if I like emacs but it seems to stick forever.
Emacs is a "heavyweight" editor. It pulls in so many
language support libraries that it takes a long time to
load. It used to take a whole minute on my CNC computer a
long time ago. That one was very short on memory, but was
good enough for the old EMC2. Much better now, but still a
few seconds delay to start.
Doesn't appear on the LiveCD as far as I can see. vi is there...
This isn't about editors. This is about changes we can make in the
LinuxCNC sample configs _only_ to make the user experience a bit
better.
And clicking "Edit G-code" and having nothing happen is not good.
Hmm, maybe during install the script could look for what
editors are actually installed and select one of them to be
used by the Edit button.
