I (with close to 10 years of Unix experiance, as well as 7 Linux) recommend it
to new users... which is not to say that I use it for everything I do. I just
went thru a IP range number change in our department, and instead of using
linuxconf, I found it easier to

       $EDITOR `grep {key text, such as old IP} \`find /etc -type f\``
