  13. I know this may sound almost oxymoronic, but has anyone ever considered
  14. a menu/mouse-driven version of vi?  I wonder if it's even possible.  That
  15. would seem to make most everyone happy.  Those of us who know better (;-) 
  16. would ignore the menus, but it would make it much easier on novices.  And
  17. I wouldn't have to endure Unix neophytes bad-mouthing my favorite 
  18. editor.  :-)
