The sage eh? You are not living up to your name :P Emacs won the last 6 years as best editor for programming and only this LAST year was displaced... by VIM (which is far from VI, but is still VI).
Refer to slashdot.org article announcement about 3 months ago. emacs has mouse scrolling, windowing, full editing, and compiling. It is a FULL IDE (Integrated Development Environment). I am sorry you have not learned Emacs. VI is for those who wish to learn.. well limited scope of commands but it gets you a lot of places. QuickEDITOR or MED (Memory Resident Editor) in the old DOS days was something to behold too. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, March 09, 2002 12:13 AM Subject: Re: Wow!
