JM's solution is the simplest one - not recommendable. With AL's solution, you also have to type the filename after C-x-4-b, so you really don't get bored :-) But to be serious: It counts to learn emacs. Not for NeXT only (I prefer Edit on NeXT), but there are many other Unix-platforms where the most sophisticated editor is called 'vi' - and people do use it ! At least with emacs, you can start editing on other unix-platforms. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Thomas Funke ** E-mail: thf@zelator.in-berlin.de NeXT-Developer * Unix-Consultant ------------------------------------------------------------------
