Nah. Right now it is quite civilised and informative. As it is, I've been a vim user since day 1; but I'm really interested in learning Emacs anyway. Methinks; its a big advantage to know vim; since; by default it'll be available on most systems. If you're not satisfied or just want to check out emacs; nothing wrong with learning it. I'd say; know both; master one so as to be productive and to not get stuck. -- ---------------------------------------- Mrugesh Karnik GPG Key 0xBA6F1DA8 Public key on http://wwwkeys.pgp.net ----------------------------------------
