Dude chill out, the world doesn't revolve around Emacs...I should know 
because I use Emacs and it DOES do a crapload that one doesn't 
neccessarily always need. For example, while taking notes for CS I 
prefer to use jed because it's smaller, faster, and does many of the 
same things I need it to do. I don't see any need to comment negatively 
about his editor just because he wants to use something different. Let's 
face it, Emacs is a dusty old dinosaur, and while it is quite usable, 
some people prefer the study of mammals over dinosaurs, if that analogy 
makes any sense ;P

Take Care,

Tim
