While on the subject of programming environments for FreeBSD:

I'm a "hello world" level programmer myself, and I've found xemacs to be
instrumental in programming because of the context-sensitive coloring
feature.  I have two questions:

Do salty programmers use this feature, or veiw it as "training wheels"
for beginning programers?

Do vi, emacs, others have similar features?
