you're welcome

Or having to power cycle the machine to get out of EMACS.

Why would you ever want to get out of EMACS?  ;-)

Editors I've used:

 * SOS (Son-Of-Stopgap) on TOPS-10
 * TECO-10 on TOPS-10
 * XEDIT on VM/370
 * EMACS

I only use VI if I absolutely must and always have issues with the modality.
