pico might not be so bad a choice, either, and might be a little easier
for those who are curious, but have little to no *nix experience.  I
know *I* still avoid vi if at all possible.  As to emacs, I only have
this to say.  "Get thee behind me, foul demon!"  I believe that emacs
lends creedence to the belief that Richard Stallman is, in fact, a stark
raving loony.
