One thing (to bring this more on-topic again) to note is that vim doesn't handle "large" (gigabytes) files nice, loading it into memory. The same is probably true for emacs. The only editor I know (I didn't test millions of them though), that nicely handles large files is joe, as it does't load them into memory. For images, which might become big especially when storing a lot of extra info (undo info etc.), this is an issue ;) -- -----==- | ----==-- _ | ---==---(_)__ __ ____ __ Marc Lehmann +-- --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / pcg@xxxxxxxx |e| -=====/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE --+ The choice of a GNU generation | |
