It also parses the code for you but I guess so would :!php -l file.php then ugly output and then Hit ENTER of type command to continue in gphpedit is <F9> > vi | vim takes some getting used to but once you are used to it you > will be pressing keys in other editors before thinking, :wq I think VI and likely powerful applications such as EMACS violate what I believe is the basic principle of UNIX application development where modularity is the rule. I think this is the true power of UNIX. About VI :%s/replace_me/with_this/g this is not nice <esc>:w(some command to go back to inser mode, which you already were ) that is terrible! Other than entering characters this is or should be the most used sequence therefore easily accessible. You have to go all over the keyboard for such important functionalities. It is like having to get out of your car to push it every time you stop. One will give you back pain and the other tendinitis :-) Lets change one character vi asdf.conf some insert text command change the character <esc> :wq What about if you forgot to su as I often do :-) I just feel more confortable with nano and pico because for my purposes let me work faster. For macros I have shell scripts. I much rather use the OS rather than have an application trying to act like it :-) I do not even want to get in the presses of wrong command where you are in command mode and you have all kinds of weirds output happening. My favorite <control>s take care, Alvaro Zuniga PS1: You also have to add the user of the <shift> key where required. PS2: I know I will take a lot of slack for my big mouth. > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org > > iD8DBQFAZHHl6JFKsKsJemQRApFfAKCq6MIpj0nTKNWTQo+YO7GnlNQcdACgkGRi > blhEztOpvZBid7Yburel55Y= > =sGwJ > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > > _______________________________________________ > General mailing list > [email protected] > http://brlug.net/mailman/listinfo/general_brlug.net
