You might want to avoid inflammatory, categorical declaratory statements that simply state your opinion as fact without even any credible supporting statements. I'd be just as justified in saying EMACS is the only editor not worth using as you are in claiming it's the only editor worth using. How's this for a rebuttal argument? I use Vim instead of EMACS because I prefer productivity over repetitive stress injury. Why do you think they named it EMACS? It stands for Esc-Meta-Alt-Ctrl-Shift. Of course, I'd only say that (mostly) in jest. I know GNU Emacs works quite well for some people. For me, however, it falls short of my needs, precisely because it tries to do everything. -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] print substr("Just another Perl hacker", 0, -2); -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
