Not having experience with emacs I can't speak to this. I use VIM for most of my text editing. I posted about the Notepad+ after finding it because others have had concerns about their users converting binary text files. As for PFE, I haven't had a chance to play with it much but it is very user friendly, user configurable and will do some IDE work. You can even create templates based on source extension. > >Thanks, > >-- >Yigal > > > - \\||// ---o0O0--Earnie--0O0o---- -earnie_boyd AT hotmail DOT com- ------ooo0O--O0ooo------- ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
