I don't use emacs for everything, but it's very good for some things.
It's a great file manager and editor. I used to prefer jed as my
editor, but recently discovered emacs highlights .foorc files,
something jed doesn't. OTOH, I don't like gnus over slrn. I've been
told a million times it can be configured to do everything slrn can,
and more. But, I'm not into spending 12.8% of my remaining lifetime
learning how. And what's with xemacs? I downloaded and discovered
all the usual apps I was expecting are now optional add ons requiring
more time scaling the curve to learn how. Not now. Maybe later.
nb ...oh, btw.... yep, every day!
