Richard, what editor do you normally use for programming?

John,

I do not want to get into the "which editor is right" discussion.
The only reasonable answer is the "the one you like and know."

But, I used emacs for quite a long time (before that I used pre-X11
and window-based systems editors).  But, I have recently switched
to gedit.  The reasons are personal preferences.  But, even after
much use of emacs, every now and then I would hit some "wrong"
key combination and emacs would get into a state such that it
was unrecoverable (by me).   The only recourse was to kill it, losing
time and work.

These days, when using Octave I keep all my current scripts in gedit
and find that this works smoothly.  This is just an observation.
