Yeah I know that emacs isnt the best editor to use and I do know why but the
prob is that its what I am used to, I'm slowly picing up vi, but  emacs just
seems so much more simplistic to me. I know enougth of vi to edit config
files and such but anything else im opening another console and going 'man
vi'.
