Textedit on Sun OS 4.0 will also include the other key features it
currently lacks (global search & replace, better macros, etc.). When we
move up to Sun OS 4.0  I shall probably leave the editor I love and use
and migrate to Textedit.

Please E-MAIL me YOUR reasons for YOUR religious hatred of vi.  I
prefer vi to emacs for 11 strong reasons.  I may post if such a
message can get lost in the "new editor wars" usenet bandwidth :-).
