People sometimes ask me if it is a sin in the Church of Emacs to use vi. Using a free version of vi is not a sin; it is a penance. So happy hacking.

Bill Joy

The intention of Paul VI with regard to what is commonly called the Mass, was to reform the Catholic liturgy in such a way that it should almost coincide with the Protestant liturgy - but what is curious is that Paul VI did that to get as close as possible to the Protestant Lord's supper... there was with Paul VI an ecumenical intention to remove, or at least to correct, or at least to relax, what was too Catholic, in the traditional sense, and, I repeat, to get the Catholic Mass closer to the Calvinist Mass.

I would cringe when asked to dance. I still remember having to wake up early from Class VI to learn Bharatanatyam. I hated it.

Most of what I knew of George VI was from watching 'The King's Speech!'

Jared Harris

It is formatted, and I'm tired of using vi. I get really bored.

Bill Joy

The fundamental problem with vi is that it doesn't have a mouse and therefore you've got all these commands.

Bill Joy

I was surprised about vi going in, though, I didn't know it was in System V.

Which editor? I can't think of one editor I worked with as an editor. The various companies did have editors but we always acted as our own editor, so the question has no answer.
