I think one of the interesting things is that vi is really a mode-based editor.

I think it is no exaggeration to say we are on the cusp of the further perfection of extreme evil, an evil whose possibility spreads well beyond that which weapons of mass destruction bequeathed to the nation-states, on to a surprising and terrible empowerment of extreme individuals.

Sometimes the easiest way to get something done is to be a little naive about it.

I got tired of people complaining that it was too hard to use UNIX because the editor was too complicated.

Well, limbo is not a good place to be.

I started to write a new editor not too long ago and had it about half done after two days.

I just don't like to lose what's in the window.
