Hi CarbOn,

I have never ever used Emac, but from my friends I have heard that Emac is not an IDE. That's the reason why I categorized it as a 'simple text based' – may be I should have reconsidered the word 'simple' because even Np++ can't be treated as a 'simple' tool. What I wanted to mean was a text based editor, with out much heavy-weight plug-ins associated with it.

The author of this article must have some problem to assume Emacs to be a “simple text editor”. Pray, I beg you to go research, as Emacs can be much MORE complicated than an IDE. If Emacs can't be called “full featured”, I don't know what else could be called so.

I prefer using NP++ for everything including simple tasks when on Windows, but on GNU/Linux, Emacs for everything, nano for editing conf files.
