Pretty much every one agrees one about the difference being that one looks excessively ugly, is something that the world does not need, has developers hard to get along with who have an irresponsible release policy and fail to get to grips with reality. Unfortunately there is no agreement about which of the two editors is that (some would even claim the same for both). So you probably need to find out yourself. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
