Java compilers for linux

[Calum]

i'm telling you, use xemacs, if you are used to pfe.

do the tutorial before you do anything else. to do this, start emacs, and type 'Ctrl-H' and then 'T' (or is it Ctrl-T?)...

Can you provide a link to it Calum so i can look at it.

however i don't use it, preferring the console based version of emacs. nevertheless, Xemacs, and three other versions of emacs all came for free with my copy of mandrake 9.0.

Unless they are foolish, every linux and BSD, and Solaris distro includes vim. To use vim type "vi Filename"

I wrote a pretty simple vim tutorial, so check it out at http://www.badconnections.net/vi-tutorial.html

They will all have vi but not necessarily vim.

this is a very old argument, and one which will never be resolved... vi, or emacs?
depends on whether you like minimalist or feature rich i suppose...
