As a system administrator, I work in many different environments
- PaulHoule 4y agoIt's one reason I completely reject customization of editors in a Unix environment and one of the reasons I quit emacs for vi. If you're logging into some strange Unix machine you might not have emacs and you might not have permission to install it or the machine might be screwed up enough that you can't or don't want to install anything before working with an editor so if using vi is routine you are more comfortable.
- abudabi123 4y agoAn environment is a set of bindings and other information used during evaluation (e.g., to associate meanings with names). The Lisp idea of an environment is informative for the emacs-ai curious user. http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw51/CLHS/Body/03_aa.htm http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw51/CLHS/Body/03_aa....
