If were really talking about saving space on the livecd we could always replace |
| 11 |
vim with nVi. It has all the basic vi features in a lot smaller package. Plus in |
| 12 |
that extra space put a small emacs work-alike like qemacs. I don't use emacs |
| 13 |
but I always assumed that since we had Vi on the cd that Emacs was on the |
| 14 |
cd as well. It'd be good to have at least the the two most common editors on |
| 15 |
the cd or at least work-alikes. |
