The fact that you have to install it, is no good. The reason I use Vi for quick editing is because I can depend on it to be there. If I have to work substantially more then I will think of installing something, and in this case why not go with the real thing.

But you have to install *everything* on a Linux box, or how does it get
there? It's not as if we have a `core' like the BSDs.

(In any case the argument is nearly-inverted on Solaris boxes, which tend
to get XEmacs as a matter of course on development platforms because Sun's
flagship development environment has XEmacs integration.)
