stupid emacs and xemacs and all the assorted packages. No real users use these
out there it is more of a developer odity (as not all developers use this
thing either). Not only that but truly useful packages such as midnight
commander (when I select console tools) and gvim are not even installed. I'm
not sure if they are even on the cd's as I havn't even managed to get them
downloaded yet and am still using my custom cd's from cooker after it was
frozen for the cd's. These two are only about 5 or 6 megs together at the
most compared to probably close to 100 megs for emacs including all it's
assorted packages.
I am not a vim versus emacs person really but I do have a few 150 meg text
files I open and read at times and vim is the only thing under linux that
even manages to open the file relatively well. Everything else gets dicy at
about 80megs. Emacs wont even begin to touch the thing. The only other
program i have found to open it with is a little windows text editor that is
not free. I think it was texedit.
