Re: PHP Editor

I second the emacs motion! Used emacs for many years now. It's quite a bugger to learn, but it is the most powerful editor. It may take a good deal of time to learn, but worth the effort, IMHO. Authors of verious editors have implemented many, many, nice features, and occiasionally, when I'm forced to use something other than emacs, I learn to appreciate them. I am very greatful, the community college I went to forced me to learn emacs. They had a PRIME minicomputer which emacs was the *only* editor available (aside from something like edlin). I like vi/vim a lot to, but if serious editing is part of the job at hand, I'll load up the kitchen sink. -Joe ""Jeff Stuart"" <jstuart@ohio.risci2.net> wrote in message news:NDBBJJECCLCABPILAFECKEKPEDAA.jstuart@ohio.risci2.net... > ICK....
