iF we throw out "gvim" since it is simply the GUI variant of
vim, are there are other GUI editors that use the kinds of :ab
abbreviations that vi does? I ask this because I don't know
wmany many people with speech imopairments or who cannot speak
at all would be interested in using my version of vi/vim with
it's .ex/.nex/.vimrc and my hundred+ abbreviations.
The IM app, pidgin is not an editor, but it does let user use
the mouse and/or arrow keys. pidgin also uses abbrvs. BEcause
i type so slowly, i have my pidgin set up to use a slew of
abbrev. [Well, not the obv's, like 'FWIW' :-) ... but other
words.
I would be interested in knowing how many list members _don't_
know vi and use another editor. just curious....
