Esc-ZZ :p Also, MacVim has menus and command keys and such for you lot who can't remember a few dozen commands. (honestly, there's nothing wrong with nano, but when I am using a text editor in a terminal window I expect to be able to do sed quickly and easily, so I use vi because I can type :15,37s/foo/bar/g in it and I haven't a clue how to do that in nano/joe. On my Mac, 'vi' is mapped to BBEdit.) -- I WILL NOT CARVE GODS Bart chalkboard Ep. 8F11 _______________________________________________ Osx-nutters mailing list [email protected] http://lists.tit-wank.com/mailman/listinfo/osx-nutters
