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 Moriyón, 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, Julián, Lola, ...), at EADS/SIC (Javier, Sergio, Roberto, ...), at Isban, at Banco Santander.

Editor War - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Editor War from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
11/20/13 Editor war - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Editor war From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Editor war is the common name for the rivalry between users of the vi and Emacs text editors. The rivalry has become a lasting part of hacker culture and the free software community. Many flame wars have been fought between groups insisting that their editor of choice is the paragon of editing perfection, and insulting the others. Unlike the related battles over operating systems, programming languages, and even source code indent style, choice of editor usually only affects oneself. Contents 1 Differences between vi and Emacs 1.1 Benefits of vi-like editors 1.2 Benefits of Emacs 2 Humor 3 Current state of the editor war 4 See also 5 Notes 6 References 7 External links Differences between vi and Emacs The most important differences between vi and Emacs are presented in the following table: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editor_war 1/6 11/20/13 Editor war - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia vi Emacs Emacs commands are key combinations for which modifier keys vi editing retains each permutation of typed keys. are held down while other keys are Keystroke This creates a path in the decision tree which pressed; a command gets executed execution unambiguously identifies any command. once completely typed. This still forms a decision tree of commands, but not one of individual keystrokes. Historically, vi is a smaller and faster program, but Emacs takes longer to start up (even with less capacity for customization. The vim compared to vim) and requires more version of vi has evolved to provide significantly memory.

A Distributed Toolkit for Supporting Multiple Group Editors
DistEdit: A Distributed Toolkit for Supporting Multiple Group Editors Michael J. Knister and Atul Prakash Software Systems Research Laboratory Department of EECS U. of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 ABSTRACT The purpose of our project is to provide toolkits for building applications that support collaboration between people in distributed environments. In this paper, we describe one such toolkit, called DistEdit, that can be used to build interactive group editors for distributed environments. This toolkit has the ability to support different editors simultaneously and provides a high degree of fault-tolerance against machine crashes. To evaluate the toolkit, we modified two editors to make use of the toolkit. The resulting editors allow users to take turns at making changes while other users observe the changes as they occur. We give an evaluation of the toolkit based on the development and use of these editors. Keywords: groupware, collaboration technology, group editors, distributed systems. INTRODUCTION Computers are now commonplace in work environments and are influencing the way people interact. Examples of computer-supported interaction mechanisms include electronic mail, newsgroups, and distributed file systems. These have opened up new ways to interact, but all support only non-interactive styles of communication. There are also “talk” programs that are more interactive but are generally restricted to two users and allow only very simple forms of interaction, such as the exchange of messages in different windows, In recent years, there has been a growing interest in providing collaboration tools to support more closely coupled interactions among a group of people [Abde88, Halo89, Elwa89, Stef87]. Our focus in this paper is on one type of collaboration tools, group editors, that allow several people to jointly edit a shared document in a distributed environment.

Risa/Asir ドリル, 2006
Risa/Asir ドリル, 2006 高山信毅, 野呂正行 2006 年 (平成 18 年), 12 月 2 日版: コメントは [email protected] または [email protected] まで 2 はじめに Risa/Asir ドリルは, 著者 (T) が徳島大学総合科学部および神戸大学理学部で数学系の学生におこなってきた計算機プログラミングの入門講義および演習をたたきだいにして書いた本である. この講義ではさまざまな言語 C, Pascal, 8086 の機械語, Ubasic, sm1, Mathematica 等を用いて実習してきたが, 利用するプログラム言語は異なっても基本的内容は同じであった. ちなみに本書の原稿のおおもとは, 1991 年に著者 (T) が学生に配布した, Mathematica の入門テキストである. 2000 年の秋に著者 (N) が富士通研究所より神戸大学へ転職してきたのを機会に, 著者 (T) はこの年の計算機プログラミングの入門講義および演習を富士通研究所で著者 (N) が開発にたづさわってきた数式処理システム Risa/Asir を用いておこなうことにした. Risa/Asir は研究用システムとしてすぐれた点を多くもつシステムであったが, 教育用途に利用するにはいろいろと不満な点もあった. 著者 (N) は, 著者 (T) およびいろいろと珍奇なことをやってくれる学生にのせられて Risa/Asir を教育用途にも使えるよういろいろと改造した. 実習室用に CDROM をいれるだけで Windows 2000 で起動できる Asir, 初心者にやさしい入力エラーの取扱い, ファイル IO, 2 次元簡易グラフィックス, さらには教育用途のために, メモリを直接読み書きする peek, poke まで付けた (ちなみにこれはセキュリティホールになるので普通は利用できない). この Risa/Asir をつかった実習は著者 (T) がおこなった他のいろいろな言語による実習のなかでも成功の部類にはいるものであり, 本として出版してみようという気になったのである. さて前にもいったようにこの講義および演習は数学科の学生向けであった. 講義の目的は以下のとおりである (目標はそもそもなかなか達成できないものであるが...). 1. 高校数学 A, B, C の計算機に関する部分を教えられるような最低限の知識と技術を身につける. 2. 数学科の学生は卒業後, 計算機ソフトウエア関連の職業につくことが多いが, その基礎となるような計算機科学の全体的な基礎知識を得る. 3. 計算数学が現代の科学技術のなかでどのように利用されているかおぼろげに理解してもらう. また計算数学が数学のなかの一つの研究分野であることを理解してもらい, とくに計算代数への入門を目指す. 4. 数学を活用する仕事 (含む数学者) についた場合に, 数式処理システム等を自由に使えるようにする. この本では講義の内容に加えてさらに数学的アルゴリズムに関する特論的な内容や, Asir のライブラリプログラムを書くための方法, Asir に C のプログラムを組み込むための方法, 計算数学のシステムをたがいに接続する実験プロジェクトである, OpenXM を利用した分散計算法など, オープンソースソフトとしてリスタートした, Risa/Asir のための情報も加筆した. この本が Risa/Asir の利用者, 開発参加者にも役立つことを願っている. なお, この本は数学科の学生向けの講義をもとに書かれたが,
