Does your remark mean it > exists :-O !? Even if a Python Emacs existed, I could not switch using it unless Gnus followed me. If Lars does rewrite Gnus in Python, who knows if it would not be the initial push that we need to do something sensible! :-) The idea of a Python Emacs comes from time to time, outside the FSF of course, but nothing serious gets done about it, so far that I know. Emacs is very deep in my habits, and I have huge configuration files. But if there was a sufficiently interesting editor (something hard to find) with Python as an extension language, I would seriously consider switching. Someone told me that `vim' supports Python, but I do not see myself using `vi', as I suffer too much each time I try :-). But I just do not dare to imagine how I could handle all my mail, without Gnus. Lars, my dear Lars, aren't you tired of Emacs LISP? :-) -- François Pinard http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~pinard
