[net.followup] emacs vs. vi

Nothing doing. You are assuming that one is better than the other
and you can make a decision based on this. This simply is not the
case (if you want to argue this one, go to net.cog-eng). Whatever
one you like better is the one that is better. People who like
moded editors like moded editors. People who do not like moded
editors do not like moded editors. I don't like screen editors
at all (but would probably change my mind if you put them in the
TERMINAL rather than crunching yuour machine with their overhead).
Basic, insoluable incompatibility. Noone is wrong. Try them both
and make your own decisions and let others do the same wherever
possible.
