[ale] vi foo

[Jeff Lightner]

100 space - nice simple - wish I'd thought of that - nice that it goes
across lines unlike the 100 l.

Loved the emacs code - gave me quite a laugh.  I typically slap around
developers (nobody else ever asks) who ask for emacs to be installed.
Nice to know I'm not alone in my opinion.

I get into enough trouble with my perl scripting.  Tacking emacs on top
of that would cause me a complete breakdown.

Thus spake James P. Kinney III (jkinney at localnetsolutions.com):
