Ah! The editor wars begin anew!
Wars, Smores... Heck, I use 'em all!
I actually started with a vi-clone back on my Tandy Color Computer 2 (Called "TS-EDIT"), and still use it when I need to...
... but when I really need a secondary OS, I use Emacs.
When I want to use something Emacs-like, but without all the heartburn, I go with Jove... it's the most Emacs-like small editor (128K executable, starts as fast as vi) I've found... used it for 10 years now. It's dead, AFAIK, but it works great.
ObSA: Chris, thanks loads for the new bigevil! Memory consumption was my primary concern, and it's gone down quite a bit with the new rules! WRT payment... I have HockeyPhobia... got hit in the face by a puck when I was 8, hated it ever since. 2 years ago, a friend was "convincing" me to take up hockey, and as such zinged a puck at me (I was not on the ice, but just outside the boards) - puck hit the boards, and I hit the ceiling!!! [[ I was his boss at the time, too... he *damn* near lost his job!!! ]]
For a while last year, I took a job working with a photographer who took action photos of Hockey tournaments (considering I live in the *Original* "Hockeytown, USA" (14000 people, 5 ice rinks!) There's lots of hockey tournaments here) and I did have to work taking pictures of the games... My phobia's much more under control now, but travelling 6 hours to pay too much to go watch the DeadWings play a game I don't care for... Hmmmmmmm... ;^>
My 7-year-old *loves* hockey, tho... (already on a team!) I'm learning to skate a little, to help him, but he can already skate better than me!) Can I just let it skip a generation??? ;-P If things go as well as I can hope, he may be *in* the NHL someday... ;-)
