Now wait just a cotton picking minute!  I will support the GNU effort, but
that does not mean I'm switching to GNU Emacs as my primary editor!  I am
always willing to try something out, even if I'm a bit suspicious of it.
I do believe that GNU Emacs is probably a very good editor.  My main problem
in using it is figuring out enough so that I can use it comfortably.
The thought of programming in Lisp after REXX does make me a bit
queasy though.  Maybe it won't be so bad after I get used to it.
Anyone got a REXX interpreter in Lisp? 1/2 :-)
