Yes, Aidan Skinner suggested Emacs too. I've tried it in
connection with both Prolog and Mozart (and maybe others)
but never felt comfortable with it. I guess some people are
more resilient too antiquities than others. ;-) But maybe
Emacs has got better lately, perhaps even got the "look and
feel" of a Windows' program. Now _that_ would be the 8th
wonder of the world! That we should get so lucky. :-)
