The Union of Vim with KDE

Philippe Fremy writes "Thomas Capricelli, Mickael Marchand and me are pleased to present the first ever stable version of KVim, finally bringing "the power of VIM with KDE's friendliness". This release contains a port of the standalone editor Vim 6.0 to Qt/KDE (2 and 3) and a KDE KPart Component. The component can currently embed either of GVim or KVim in Konqueror (screenshots), with out-of-process embedding. Further work is required before proper support for KDevelop, KMail and Kate is available, but things are moving forward." As everyone knows, Vim is the best (only?) text editor, and KDE is the best (only?) desktop system. Heh.

Let me be the frist to say it

Vim? Does it have a calendar? Eliza? news? web? programming language? inline shell? holidays? more to the point, have they fixed that awful bug where you have to press three or four keys to change it from overtyping to inserting or deleting? How could anyone think that was a good idea?

OK I'm trolling, but goddamit I'm trolling for emacs AND I'M PROUD OF IT!! (Anyway, c'mon, what do you expect with a story like that?? "Vim the only text editor"?? Are you mad? As it happens I'm half-way through an install of Mandrak 8.2 on the machine next to this one - sure looks like there's more than one text editor there... fgs there's two versions of emacs alone (four including -nox)...
