I don't >know if it will ever be fixed :). No, it will never get fixed. I use two editors on a day-to-day basis, and that is mcedit and joe. No fixed rule on which to use. It goes as far that I have the same syntax highlighting (almost) on both. Because one thing in one editor is cumbersome in the other. Perhaps if there was one editor with the hotkeys of *both* (yes, means duplicates), maybe then I'd be satisfied. >Emacs have black background by default.

Actually, blue is perceived as one of the darkest colors by the human eye. There is a reason that the RGB -> grayscale transformation uses the following weighting: r=76 g=154 b=26. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
