[Gllug] vi vs emacs (repeat)

[honos]

Hi Craig,

The question is as old as the Unix OS!

Sys Admins usually go for vi as they need to write/edit lots of conf 
files and/or script, vi is fast, small and almost always present in the OS.

Developers, copywriters and specific IT experts prefer emacs as it can 
be loaded with programming languages, email functionality and many other 
extra modules making it a  multi-purpose application.

So the choice is yours...

cheers,
honos
