[JR>] wow. TriLUG rules. I'm glad folks are open to Microsoft Windows.
Maybe some kind soul will give me a hand with vi. I went to Start ->
Programs and can't find vi anywhere. I probably screwed up the
installation. If real IT pros use vi, I wanna do it, too.
For situations where you're actually forced to use some iteration of
Windows (by corporate policy you haven't gotten around to changing or
bucking yet, for example) - there is a very nice and functional version
of Gvim. And of course, there's always Cygwin - the entire ultimate
UNIX environment for that dreaded platform that shall go unnamed.
Install X11, Eterm, open ssh, the Mozilla products, etc and get on with
being productive. Note to install the x11 startup scripts - one of
which is a pre-made .bat script to drop in your startup, that opens X in
the system tray, and gives you seamlessly integrated X11 windows with
your standard Windows API borders. Your boss may never know the
fabulousness of your subversions.
