Hendrik,

Just curious -- do any distros come with emacs as the default editor?  I
don't use emacs, and have never tried running it from a default install
of any distro I've ever used.

Agreed.  Even though I am always annoyed when I run 'visudo' on a new
system and get nano.  But I know how to change it so it's no big deal.
