Re: How about dropping the MzScheme interface?

If you have those kinds of questions, I still wonder how you came to be on this list, but regardless here are my thoughts.  Notepad is a fairly simple text editor designed to work only within the Windows environment.  I used it no occasion for either editing simple text files or capturing simple notes (the company I worked for was all Windows based, with the exception of servers.  Vim is used mostly by programmers to edit source files.  It is much more capable than Notepad in its functionality to edit within a file as well as the management of multiple files.  It can be used also for other purposes such as note taking, journaling, etc., but always with text files.

Hope this helps and I log off this thread.

Thanks for your time Tony! I've often wondered about why people ever need to alter text? If you have time I would love to know the answer. Thanks in advance!

IMHO, Vim is to Notepad what a Rolls-Royce is to a bicycle (except on
the matter of price). But that's just my own opinion, after I've veen
using Notepad, then Vim, for a number of years.

Best regards,
Tony.
