One thing (to bring this more on-topic again) to note is that vim doesn't handle large (gigabytes) files nice, loading it into memory. The same is probably true for emacs.

For images, which might become big especially when storing a lot of extra info (undo info etc.), this is an issue ;) -- -==- | ==-- _ | ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann +-- --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] |e| -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE --+ The choice of a GNU generation | | ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

Hmm..that just seens just plain as no downside at all.
You see..windows users don't even have a comom tool to edit
large ASCII files.
