Emacs Hits Version 23
djcb writes "After only 2 years since the previous version, now emacs 23 (.1) is available. It brings many new features, of which the support for anti-aliased fonts on X may be the most visible. Also, there is support for starting emacs in the background, so you can pop up new emacs windows in the blink of an eye. There are many other bigger and smaller improvements, including support for D-Bus, Xembed, and viewing PDFs inside emacs. And not to forget, M-x butterfly. You can get emacs 23 from ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/ or one of its mirrors; alternatively, there are binary packages available, for example from Ubuntu PPA."
Of course not, Emacs is an operating system, it just has to be put into viper mode to have a decent text editor.
Taxation is legalized theft, no more, no less.
Wow, what a kiss-ass comment intended to get cheap upmods.
Semi-literate stories, completely ignorant comments
The GPL spirit? Which one the idea of sharing for a common goal. Or the idea that is is pure evil to do anything not in RMS's vision?
If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
If you're against copyrights, then you're also against the GPL which is a copyright license.
Bullshit. Copyrights are wrong, the GPL is just picking up the enemy's weapon to use against them, a moral act as any irishman will tell you.
WITHOUT COPYRIGHT THE GPL WOULD BE UNENFORCEABLE. IT WOULD ALSO BE UNNECESSARY.
Unfortunately, we cannot choose which human brain TECO simulates. Due to a wrongly placed hole in punched card #23, the only brain that can be simulated is actually Paris Hilton's.
