Me too. I use vim for almost anything - including writing in forms on the web (via the firefox plugin ItsAllText). I write books, esseys, articles and all my e-mail in vim (I use Mutt as the mail client). I am almost twice as effective in handling e-mail than most people I know with the mutt/vim combo. ->Geir Isene :) -- Daglig leder / CEO FreeCode AS Cell: +47 - 473 44 000 Phone: +47 - 21 53 69 00, Fax: +47 - 21 53 69 09 Addr: Nydalsveien 30A, 0484 Oslo Web: http://www.freecode.no/
