Get a copy of Unix for Dummies to get started. There is no unix instruction
here, but there is plenty of opportunity to apply even a little knowledge of
it.

Some observations (of summer):
Some interesting signs on businesses on Warren Ave. west of the Southfield:
DOG HOUSE Coney Island & Ham Place
FROG Foreign Auto Supply
At my place of work, a big truck resembling a garbage truck or a "sewer
sucker" truck, its bed full of red wood chips, and nozzle for attaching a hose
to spray them out.

That "Coney Island & Ham Place" just tickles me. :-)

The Dog House, on Gratiot, was my father's restaurant.
I grew up there.

Hello, I am Nathan Wilson, alias KenOhki; but you should already know that
from the topic. I live in Henderson, NC, a horrible place. I am 16 and
am bored here. I like messing with comps, watching anime, playing RPGs,
and all sorts of other geeky stuff. This is my first shell account although
I have used the bash shell in Linux often.
Emacs rocks.
I'm looking forward to being flamed--er, I mean discussing.

I never thought of anime as all that geeky-- just sort of quirky. I
like it. So what anime is your fave, Nathan?

Emacs sucks. It's *vi* that rocks. .

If you're not going to use Emacs, at least use *vim* instead of plain *vi*.

At this point, I can use vim on about 90% of the systems I log into, but
there's still 10% where it's useful to be familiar with plain vi.

Sorry folks, it's plain vi for me. Too used to it to consider another editor.

Being bi-editorial, I like both emacs and vi/vim. How's that for weird?
(Actually, I find the vim default configuration that comes with some
linux distributions to be distinctly irritating -- tries to be helpful
in various ways that I don't want and only serve to annoy me. How
Microsoftish!)

I agree with the second paragraph. I prefer an editor that does what i want
it to do rather than what the programmers assume I will want it to.

Straight vi for me. I want an editor to do what I tell it to, not what it
thinks I want it to.

"VI is to EMACS as masturbation is to making love:
effective and always available but probably not your first choice..."
That said, I use, and like using, both.
