Hi Everyone, apologies in advance for the off topicness and potentially flame inducing nature ... maybe it would be best if all replies just went to me directly and not the list.
I am working in a Windows only environment and am looking for some kind of replacement for Acme or Sam to use in this environment. I have tried the 9pm stuff (and the even older Sam for Windows), but under XP Professional all the GUI programs hang. I haven't managed to get it to rebuild properly yet. I have also tried qemu and VMWare. The former locks up my machine, regardless of guest OS. The latter (at least in V5) publishes lots of crap on the host side (things like DHCP server, which means I am currently on the bad books of the IT admin team). Can anyone recommend an editor that does not insist on coloring my text, has no bloody special modes for C or XML or ..., has decent copy-n-paste (i.e., double click selects something reasonable, and not everything between whitespace)? I have tried gvim and eclipse, neither of which was any good. I am very close to resigning to fate and coming to grips with emacs. Feeling deprived, Robby
