In order of preference: 1. emacs 2. emacs 3. emacs :-) I don't know if you have X running, but if you do, xemacs has a nice syntax formatting mode (which happens to C programs by default) which is very reminiscent of the Borland IDE syntax formatter. Having said this, I've never really got used to emacs, I still use vi as my editor. I've set up an X environment using 'xfm', 'vi' and 'xxgdb' which gives me 'drag and drop' access to editors, debuggers and 'make'. Although it tends to create a lot of windows, I find it very comfortable. John -- Beavis and Butt-Head; Vladimir and Estragon for the '90s. finger jbrann@panix.com for pgp public key
