OK, so a slight variation on the old vi vs emacs 'debates'...

Actually forgot what I used to use on Windows... I can sympathise with
the schizophrenia if you're trying to do the same thing across multiple
systems but with different interfaces...

Isn't this going to come down to porting your favourite editor to work
across both platforms?...

Either that, or you reconfigure the key mappings for emacs to make it
behave how you like! :-)


Look forward to seeing you at the social.


And...

Might any of these be of interest? (All about £10!)

Or are they all actually the same device?

Any good as an NTP time source?... ;-)
