I've written a couple of 50,000 word novels, a 10,000 word Honours thesis, and numerous short stories using Emacs. I find Emacs more comfortable to use than vi/vim for longer works. The switching between command and edit modes in vi tends to break my concentration. In Emacs, I find it easier to stay focused on the writing rather than the commands needed to control the editer. But it's really a personal thing, which one you prefer. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
