ah! And I forgot the main issue to back this answer: there is no "EFL editor", thus you can't help everybody. I use emacs myself and don't give a shit about vim. People that use vim don't give a shit to emacs. Raster himself uses a weird editor nobody else uses. Then Leandro uses yet-another, then some guy here uses kate... you got it: you'll not "fix" the said problem by having these things in. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
