Hi,

 I am pretty new with GNU and I would like to know what is the best editor
to use with GNU C++ in Windows NT. I found a copy of BlueGNU but it is
telling me that this editor run in 16 bits and I don't like it. Waiting for
your help. Thank you.

So you want to start a religious war do you?
My answer is Emacs, without a moment's thought. Part of the reason is
that it's what I use every day on Solaris and it's nice not having to
switch gears. I have Windows 95, not NT, and use Emacs mainly with Java
and Ada 95 rather than C++. But I know many people use it successfully
under NT and with C++ also.
For more information and binaries, go to:

Also, I think "GNU Editor" and Emacs are more or less synonyms.

No no, vim.

notepad. oh crap, sorry, i meant emacs.

The *manly* editor.  Only if the system crashes are you
permitted to

cat >>foo.c
