I agree it is very hard to break out of 'emacs-ism'. I'm using sam to write this mail, however, I patched with samkey so I can bind ctrl-a to dotbol (for the simple reason that I don't want to lift my hand off keyboard to use the mouse to correct a mistake.) I also have a emacs(lucid) running to do source code viewing. I like sam a lot and use it everyday, however, it is not a one for all editor. ============================================================ Peter Huang HP Response Center Lab Phone: (415)691-3417 Email: huangp@mayfield.HP.COM 100 Mayfield Avenue, MS 37MA, Mountain View, CA 94043 ============================================================
