[pLog-svn] What software do you use for programming Plog?

 	I guess I have been in the Linux world so long I didn't even get 
your question for a couple seconds.
 	I use emacs for plog.  and `grep -R`, since I am not used to the 
code structure yet, though it is getting better, I can guess the directory 
that I want usually, and sometimes even the filename.
 	I did use EditPlus back when it was in beta, it looked pretty 
nice, and had easily customizable syntax highlighting, so I could teach it 
verilog and various flavors of assembly language.

 	At work, we use Epsilon, though relatively expensive is a very 
nice port of emacs to windows, significantly better than plain emacs on 
windows.  If I knew Lisp, I might not see it as that much of an advantage, 
but Epsilon can be customized with C instead of Lisp.

[linux flavor war starting... hopefully not, since this is the svn list]
 	I have used Debian for a long time, and I find it to be the best 
distribution in terms of administration, and upgrading packages.  I 
haven't looked at the Fedora cores, but I believe Debian has now outpaced 
Red Hat's package manager.
 	And the installer, which used to be hard, is amazingly easy.
 	I just downloaded a "business card cd" and it auto-detected all of 
my hardware, RAID-1 SATA disks, both ethernet ports, etc. and asked easy 
questions, I think easy enough for most anyone; probably not for my 
mother, but close.

 	Allan - I am willing to help with Linux stuff.
