I was thinking more like something along the lines of switching modes in
emacs. Or something to that effect.

I just started using Emacs again. Vector Linux doesn't come with Vim and
while I continue to use vi / nano for quick edits, vim obviously isn't
cutting it anymore (see my response to Russ on localizing his friend's
Linux experience). I relearned quickly and then learned some more.
Presently I have figured out how to get M-a, M-e to recognize
single-spaces after a sentence and stumbled upon the bookmarks feature.
Holy shit vim doesn't have those.

But in all fairness, Emacs doesn't have C-V and then I. pwnt.

Come to think of it my femoral arteries probably aren't cutting it anymore
either. Better practice harder for upcoming cross-country this school
year.
