Hello mate I've been using Ubuntu 8.04 desktop on my macbook. It's really superb. I prefer gnome because in Ubuntu it is so much more polished. I can also get apache, mysql, etc running, along with any revision control system I desire - which at the moment means Bazaar. For actually editing I use Gedit, with the extra plugins installed, and all snippets etc enabled. If I don't feel like Gedit I use Komodo IDE. I think we both need to do some soul-searching to pluck up enough courage to take on the mighty beasts of Vi and Emacs!! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
