i hope this isn;t going to turn into yet another vi verses emacs thread they must account for over half of the theads on all forums around the world.

but yes i like vi if i am doing anything important if its just a quick script or a note i just use nano which is a pico clone with a few extras

the Gnome KDE war is just so stupid, who cares what window manager you use, i think it was red hat who wanted to incorperate them together but since i don't follow linux news that much anymore i don't know if they did it or not, i do know they also wanted to combine all the shells into one... that idea was not very popular

// is NOT VALID C CODE!

not true it depends on how new the compiler is as the // commenting was added to ANSI C in the last standard in 1999 along with a few other bits a pieces such as variable lenght arrays and some stuff from C++

but if MIPSPRO is having a fit about the comments then best thing is to remove them
