Macros, auto-correct, keybinds, etc? Sounds like you need a word processor, not a text editor (?). >If you are that desperate for a better editor try EMACS, Jed, Jove, Joe, >or pico. Trying to piss people off is not a way to accomplish anything. I'm happy enough with ee for casual text editing. Pico is not offered as a FreeBSD package (it may be in the ports collection tho, I dunno... I don't have the ports collection installed due to no easy way to download tarballs). -- My web site starts at http://www.serv.net/~fewtch/index.html - lots of goodies for everyone, have a look if you have the time.
