[osflash] [OT] one editor for everything (emacs)

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

I have installed emacs (emacs win32), and found it to be very insteresting.
The interface is simple but pretty. Didn't go further becouse I have no
available time right now to invest on learning the tool, but I will surely
play with it when I get the chance :)

Right now, I'm using FlashDevelop2 for AS2 development. Eclipse with the PHP
IDE plug-in for PHP dev.
