I think you expressed it well. I'll add that using one does not necessarilly exclude using the other. I tend to use whatever makes the job easiest FOR ME! ...be it a gui or the command line. Also, ease of learning emacs has absolutely zero to do with mental prowess and not everyone using it is a code whiz. Except for some html and shell scripting, I do almost zero developement because it bores me to freakin' tears. That's not to say I can't like the command line and emacs. All types of user interface have their pros and cons and it's senseless to limit one's self to one or the other. Some tasks benefit from using both simultaneously, acad and gimp/p-shop being prime examples. Sure, everyone loves the camaraderie of belonging to a group. That's just being human. But, choosing a preference doesn't require fanatical loyalty to the exclusion of all other options, or at least it shouldn't. Use the one that's best for the job. nb -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
