Nice plug for O'Reilly, Albert ;-), but why this channel ?
Personally I avoid emacs when ever possible having used vi for years (ok,
decades). But - I recently came across a REAL programmers editor called
slickedit while looking for a Java code beautifier - see www.slickedit.com
This really made me sit up - it support emacs and vi (not to mention that old
dos favourite brief) editing modes - including regular expressions. Good
support for Java/C/C++/et al, and includes a great code beautifier. Even
supported on Weird operating systems begining with W, but smile :), it also
runs under X.
