Alright I'll bite, my biggest reason for using pico (I switch between vi and pico a lot) is the auto wordwrap and the paragraph formatter. Is there an easy way to do this in vi? Currently I really like those features when reading/writing email and doing documentation but the majority of other tasks are done with vi, in fact I'll switch editors mid-stream depending on the feature I want at the time. -- ---<GRiP>--- Web: www.arcadia.au.com/gripz Phone/fax: 02 4950 1194 Mobile: 0408 686 201 -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
