Anyone have a VI > > mode for EMACS? You can do a lot of this in nvi as well. You can make a shell window with :sh and run your compiler (or make or whatever in it). There are also ways to make it move you to the line of an error and stuff (I believe, I haven't done this myself). Read the nvi (or vi on FreeBSD) man pages, they talk a bit about the new features of nvi. alex
