      i wouldn’t know and i hold nothing against it. i shared my previous comment because it was the funniest part of the vi vs emacs holy wars that use to dominate online discourse about it.

            @eldavi yes of course, emacs won. But people still beating the dead horse with that joke whenever emacs is mentioned.
