VIM 6.0 is Out

LinuxNews.pl writes "It's more then a year after releasing the first 6.0 alpha. Lot's of improvements (i.e. you can edit files via FTP!) - check them out on vim.org" Of course everyone knows that vim is the best text editor in the world. Anyone who tells you differently is either wrong, lying, or criminally insane. (Or an emacs user, in which case they are wrong, lying and criminally insane).

  3. Microsoft Word 6.0 Mac by sulli · · Score: 1, Troll

    Come on, everyone knows Microsoft Word 6.0 for the Macintosh is far and away the best text editor out there. I am shocked and amazed that anyone would still use these unix tools that don't have a Tip of the Day and pretty cut and paste buttons! Plus the macro language is extremely useful in Word 6.0 and later versions - if you can't automate your most important features, the program just isn't worth using.

  4. Another great feature by the_other_one · · Score: 2, Troll

    I can use vim 6.0 to create a website that disparages vim 6.0 and vim.org without having to worry about violating the license.

    Yet one more way this is free as in speach.
