</div>Not to add to the noise, and I know that many or most of you are<br>
sysadmins on many machines, where I'm a developer primarily on one,<br>
and I know that emacs breaks the "do one small thing well" unix<br>
philosophy, BUT.... if you're using emacs to just edit, you're Doing<br>
It Wrong (tm).<br>

That said, I'm an emacs user but I also know enough vi to get around.<br>
