  • The Oldest Rivalry in Computing Forget Apple Vs
    Follow us on Twitter for more great Slate stories! Follow @slate BITWISE DECODING THE TECH WORLD. MAY 9 2014 9:57 AM The Oldest Rivalry in Computing Forget Apple vs. Google. Emacs and Vi have been battling for text-editor supremacy among programmers for 40 years. By David Auerbach An early Emacs manual cover from 1981. Courtesy of GNU Emacs n a world where both software and hardware frequently become obsolete right I on release, two rival programs can stake a claim to being among the longest-lived applications of all time. Both programs are about to enter their fifth decades. Both programs are text editors, for inputting and editing code, data files, raw HTML Web pages, and anything else. And they are mortal enemies. Their names are Emacs and Vi (styled by programmers as “vi”). These editors are legendary and ancient, no exaggeration. Both date back to at least 1976, making them older than the vast majority of people currently using them. Both programs are text editors, which means they are not WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get)—unlike, say, word processors like Microsoft Word, they do not format your words onscreen. Programming is very different from word processing, and the basic goal of Emacs and Vi—fast editing of source code (and any other text files)—has yet to become obsolete. Both have been in ongoing development for almost 40 years. These two wizened programs are as close to equally matched enemies as any two programs have ever been. If you know a programmer who uses one of them, there’s a good chance that she hates the other.

After all those years, I have a quite long list of people that have contributed to this book in one way or another. Unfortunately, I will not be able to include them all. Apologizes for the absences. First of all my family. Gema, with neverending patience and love, always supports me in every single project that I undertake. My unbounded love and gratitude. Hard to return, though I’ll try. My two daughters, Sof´ıaand Diana, make every single moment worthy. I’m absolutely grateful for their existence. My brothers Alex´ and Nina, now living in Switzerland, with whom I shared so many moments and that I miss so much. My parents, always supporting also with patience and love, worried if this boy would become a man (am I?). Juan, my thesis supervisor, whose advice and interest is invaluable. He has been actively involved in this project despite his many responsibilities. Also, I would like to thank the people at the series of seminars on complexity theory at U.A.M., headed by Roberto Moriy´on, for their interest on Matrix Graph Grammars. Many friends have stoically stood some chats on this topic affecting interest. Thank you very much for your friendship. KikeSim, GinHz, Alvaro´ Iglesias, Jaime Guerrero, ... All those who have passed by are not forgotten: People at ELCO (David, Fabrizio, Juanjo, Juli´an, Lola, ...), at EADS/SIC (Javier, Sergio, Roberto, ...), at Isban, at Banco Santander.

  • Atari Game Systems and Atari Computers for the Index Page / Site Listing
    Best Electronics Specializing in Replacement Parts and Accessories for all Consumer Based Atari Game Systems and Atari Computers for the Index page / Site listing One of the more common Atari Questions / E-Mails we get, do you really have that Atari part or Atari item in stock. I have checked the world wide Internet and you are the only one that lists it? I noticed that your that your Atari web page(s) have not been updated (bottom of each Best Web page has a last updated date) for weeks, months or years? When we cleared out the local Atari Sunnyvale Warehouses here over a 10 to 15 year period, we hauled in thousands and thousands of Pallets of Atari Goods. Some Atari items we have a lifetime supply of (hence why the Best Atari web page for that product never gets updated) and other Atari items have sold out fast to the world wide Atari users and collectors.
