yes, my standard editor is Gvim, but Joe is useful for little tasks: it also allows emulation of the similar Borland Turbo editor; and jpico has a lot more than simple Pico, eg an undo function. Mandrake folx: shouldn't Joe be installed under 'Office' & 'Development'? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto
