I'm not thrilled with the systemd stuff either, I still don't see that it is solving anything that wasn't solved. But somebody must like it, it's a big change. vim, on the other hand, oh do I love me some vim. It's pretty faithful to the original vi but you get split windows, infinite undo, it remembers stuff from one invocation to the next, it's pretty sweet. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at mcvoy.com http://www.mcvoy.com/lm
