I personally would be a LOT happier without pico.  Unfortunately, I'd
like my friend to be productive in this code project we're working on, so
for the time being (until I finish converting him and getting him
comfortable with vi, the Supreme Good Editor) that means I have to give
him pico.  And some of this code is just useless to try and read with
8-char tabstops...
