Re: Solaris Holy War (was emacs vs. vi holy war)
I used to think Solaris was weird, but interesting. Now I
kind of like it - but that may be because I replaced AIX
with it (Ouch!). Of course, if it were not for SunFreeware
(GNU), I would have no use for it.
As far as emacs goes, I started off with emacs. Cliff
Stoll spoke about it a lot in "Cuckoo's Egg", (excellent
book!). I am so impressionable. I only knew enough about
vi to to minimal editing. Since I have taken time to learn
vi ('cause none of the Solaris or AIX boxes had emacs), I
have been very impressed! It's so fast and powerful. I
only use vi now (except when I'm using the Yahoo mail
editor). :-)
