Grrr. Don't get me started on editors. I have never gotten on with any editor program that uses modes - e.g. command mode vs. editing mode - or long command sequences. Never mind vi or Emacs, I'm thinking back as far as WordStar. When WordPerfect came along on DOS, I finally found some relief, and got used to Notepad and Word on Windows.

On Linux, if I'm on the command line, I want nano or pico, thank you very much. I'm just trying to edit a text file, not learn a new language.
