Yeah, sorry about that. You now have my permission to mangle my name a few times, if you wish. Maybe you don't mind being confused with the author of xemacs, though. ;-> True story: I had dinner with a group that included that evening's speaker, Richard M. Stallman. As I ended up sitting next to Richard, the devil in me impelled me to say 'Richard, I hope you don't mind sitting next to a vi user.' He was way ahead of me. Richard smiled beatifically, and said 'We of the Church of Emacs believe that the use of vi is _not_ a sin... but rather penance.' Points to RMS for that one. (Reputation to the contrary, he's a witty and warm fellow.)
