021101 various people observed that Mandrake no longer includes Pine & someone asked: > Does that include its parts such as pico? > It would be nice for pico to be included by itself if possible > as it is one of the easiest to use text-based editors there is.
this was discussed recently & i recommended Joe, which is included in 9.0rc1 & has a more powerful emulation of Pico; i also recommended that Joe be installed under Office & Development. > Vi and emacs require a great deal of cryptic command string memorization > while pico is all right there. there are cat lovers & dog lovers and there are Emacs people & Vi people: today anyway, it's Vim, which is as easy to use as you wish. however, you are right that a little editor is sometimes all you need, which is when you can turn to Joe or the MC editor (as someone else said). -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto
