I don't want to start a long sub-thread about this, but what is so
great about the practically lengendary "Emacs" editor I keep hearing
agout? I tried a DOS port of it a long time ago, and found it very
large and cumbersome to use. Please don't misunderstand me, I'm not
trying to start a fight. I simply want to know what is the beauty of
Emacs that I overlooked? So many satisfied users must know something
about the program that I don't.   :)

Thanks,
