Just like religion. I've been working on a new editor called Squaviemax.

Works best on a 386 with a spiky power supply. Ideal for editing sendmail.cf. :) Rob. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Robin Melville, Addiction Information Services Nottingham Alcohol & Drug Team Tel: +44 (0)115 952 9478 Fax: +44 (0)115 952 9421 work: robmel@nadt.org.uk home: robmel@innotts.co.uk Pages: http://www.innotts.co.uk/~robmel (home page) http://www.innotts.co.uk/nadt (substance misuse pages) ----------------------------------------------------------------------
