Think again. No. But I'm also not confused enough to think that people should use micro-emacs for reading man-pages. The UNIX philosophy is "do one thing, and do it well". Man-pages with man. html with a web browser. And edit stuff with an editor. Why the *hell* do you confuse my choice of editor with my choice of man-page format? I didn't. That whole "do everything in emacs" is a disease. And then emacs users think that it's "sane". Linus
