Nope, I just love hearing people criticize Emacs for not being "modern"
or saying what you said.  In my opinion it's the rest of the software
world that is totally backwards.

I've found that whatever feature I want, I just have to look hard enough
and it's already been done.  The amount of Emacs Lisp coding I've done
is therefore pretty small, and quite specialized in use.

Well, maybe you haven't been looking for a mode that *works* for web development, as that's what we were talking about in this thread. There are editors like TextMate which is only a few years onld and can handle that much better than Emacs can do it now.

Again, I am not sure why this is happening but the truth is, I need to write code (for web) easier not go learn another language to figure out if I can create a mode to help me write code, cause that takes time which I don't have right now.
