Please....I said "decent"!! :) Actually, I don't know anything about emacs...other than what I read in the flame wars. I've been using vi for 10 years, am more than happy with it, and have no desire to change. It's been suggested that I get copy of a unix shell which runs on top of aos. Too much overhead just for an editor. Also, I don't have a compiler on the beast, for those who suggested I try to port it myself. I was thinking that someone had probably done it by now....appears not. > >-- >---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Zebee Johnstone DoD #605 | You don't own an Italian motorcycle > Adelaide City Council | - you merely have the privilege > zebee@itd.adelaide.edu.au | of paying its bills.... -- | Tom Hansen || "My beard grows to my toes.
