I say, "It only implements a subset of the features of GNU Emacs, but in return it's quite efficient and fast." In retrospect I do wish I had been clearer and elaborated on the "contrived" part of the test. Again, the goal was to promote discussion, and in the end, hopefully improve Emacs. I will take the video down at some point. I also don't want to give new users the wrong impression. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJWbGOoAAoJEDakDIOw1u+ea8UQAIp/r6+liwe1hWAvCJtsjuJz msC6cwCO52qeO2JDma2+5T95+Q5O9wFf+4a32geGREnxU0sptt9VY+0/uXzpmypd bGx4HrOS6ScO0boRCNARyR3lpkCDYD2Ulu19cd0THRBMz7NeWK5RLdOg8IWuYiUi 3N8zNmPOYDf0PewCnPkwNiA+GfxpuVt0GXG11euaPp+RFNgF2Kgz2sprG8kC4OZr X8Y9lT93WkeUOiAivW5+Rx+yv1UAoUJtaVNHB0/5bF2rkGd74O7EjVoWYFrJL1yJ tTIHrMa1pbpwAIF3YQNIh5cMVQyeszMm9Dp8p6K43ZG6qZUBaeIGJ5uvfgAOGCfB UgaOXgr7rveQN44nIoVTqWJjpcLHciaAt37hIkaJDVSELR7uGvu9hz70T8BFs3B6 oAI8wG/AuhOp+jAZtXLXmIVOmTbRAVLrATYOd9Spj3BMiSgk4ImM/7VDbXxrwi2V 12Mvr7nfOg4CJELjIG/eHyi2shEkdbw2TXnXfO0kAGu30uN7cP69tr8na9tPZJPM zLrJcUvQYOyOEOwIkQeWPEd1aCeMLtYuhORBtgdtpX/YOqKNQ5WViXhun/7bfZrz 8HUjAAFY50ba0drczAQKeIjszHrQ3Any/F388hLym3ueBUfQ9NTKWw+V12TIDf+M /BlFbvrEKKtZahp26D7W =6Y1O -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
