Dunno; hasn't happened to me yet. I've been running emacs since I started 20 years ago (running the original ITS emacs, written in TECO, on a TOPS-20 system under the "incompatibility package" which allows ITS programs to run on TOPS-20). I've used that, JOVE, Gosling, GNU, Epsilon, Emacs command mode in Borland's Sprint and Microsoft's Visual Studio, and at least one other version (for TOPS-10) that I can't remember. I've been able to find emacs-like editors on more classes of boxes than vi was available for, anyway. -- David Dyer-Bennet / Welcome to the future! / dd-b at dd-b.net SF: http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ Minicon: http://www.mnstf.org/minicon/ Photos: http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/
