Summary: flames are ruining my phosphor

(...Flames abound about MicroTrashmacs vs. DME)

Well, I'm using Gnu Emacs 18.something-or-other on my Sun at work, and I
love it.  I tried the MicroEmacs that came on my 1.2 Extras disk, and I
don't like it that much.  It takes up more room on my Workbench disk than
I feel it's worth.  I took it off my workbench disk, and I'm using TxEd.
Even that's not great, but it's better than that Edit shit they give you
on Workbech (Gack!)

I can't comment about DME because I don't have it.  But, from what I've
heard about it, I'd like to give it a shot.  Maybe I'll grab it next time
it comes around.

When it comes to editors, you use what *you* are *comfortable* with and
to hell with everyone else.  Sorry, but that's my opinion, to which I am
Constitutionally entitled.  If you don't like it, slime me.  Of course,
that will further entitle me to slime you right back.... :-)
