Goodness! All I wanted was to have a comment contain a copyright character.
Thanks to the people who were kind enough to take the time to respond to my
questions. Now my commit messages are no longer a big blob of text, my
.vimrc is modified, I've gotten fossil to stop complaining about my file,
and I've learned some more about the intricacies of language support.

I never meant to start another editor war -- I thought that was over when
the vi vs. emacs debate finally died years ago.

Now its been suggested that I not only change my editor, but my keyboard,
my programming language, my OS, and even to buy a new computer from a
different manufacturer. While I suppose that might move the world closer to
perfection, but I've been around long enough to know that will never happen.

If I knew Mr. Sonnenberger personally, I might, out of consideration for an
acquaintance, reach out and ask how I might be able to spell his name
correctly. I would hope that his response would not be to insist that I
change editors, keyboard, etc. I also strongly suspect that he would feel
the same were the situation reversed.

Anyway, thanks again to those people who helped me. At this point I don't
find this thread going anywhere productive and I'm sort of sorry for
starting it.


It's interesting, and that's reason enough for it.
