`vi has the Ctrl-d and Ctrl-u commands which I never need. Therefore
I don't use vi.'
Strange strange.
I think removing all features you don't use from all programs you use
is going to be a lot of work.
If one has emotional reasons for something then one should go ahead
and say so, rather than rationalizing in a way that causes other
people to try to explain the flaws in their logic.
A friend of mine says he doesn't want to use an editor which he can
program and therefore sticks to vi (nvi without the Perl stuff, to be
precise). I wouldn't dream of trying to discuss with him -- he's
happy and that's fine. But then he doesn't discuss with me -- I'm
happy and that's fine, too.
