  Dave,
 I've used GNU emacs for about 20 years and xemacs for the last four or
 five.  They're both pretty similar, but I like xemacs better for use
 with X.
 It's the greatest program ever written, IMHO.  :-)
 
 Second that!
 
well if people have the right to express their support for something - I
shall like to execute my right to do the opposite - emacs (x or not) sucks.
VIM is the way - see the light - use VIM.
(by the way - whilst participating in this highly off-topic thread - I shall
make this post the past one regarding the issue (even though I really do
think highly of VIM and lowly of emacs...) - but perhaps we should stop what
could quite soon become a flaming war... if inclined otherwise (praising or
damning an editor/OS) - there are relevant newsgoups for that  - let us go
there...
:-)
