Yes, that's right.
- kunley 16y agoGentlemen, I think the whole emacs-is-too-big point is totally obsolete in this century. Vim eats 8-10M of my memory. Emacs with many different modes running eats 15-20M. It mattered back in 1996 when I've had 24M of RAM, heck I remember programming in emacs + X11 having as low as 16M and I survived ;) But to the point. The difference between 10 and 20M doesn't matter anymore. What matters is that Eclipse eats 500M of memory, is sluggish and I doubt it offers better programming experience; still so many people don't want to listen that there are alternatives to it. I think that's the area we should debate & educate people. Both vi/emacs are brilliantly light these days.
