I was surprised about vi going in, though, I didn't know it was in System V.

But no, I don't generally have trouble with spelling mistakes.

I started to write a new editor not too long ago and had it about half done after two days.

Systems are going to get a lot more sophisticated.

I think the Macintosh proves that everyone can have a bitmapped display.

Document preparation systems will also require large screen displays.

Well, limbo is not a good place to be.

Bitmap display is media compatible with dot matrix or laser printers.

I just don't like to lose what's in the window.

I got tired of people complaining that it was too hard to use UNIX because the editor was too complicated.

Interleaf is based on the formatting process.

The point is that you want to have a system that is responsive.

But with Interleaf I don't even have a spell program.

The fundamental problem with vi is that it doesn't have a mouse and therefore you've got all these commands.

I think editors have to come out of a certain kind of community.

I remember right after Carter got elected, I was sitting in my apartment in Albany, CA, on a Saturday listening to people call Carter and ask stupid questions while I designed the screen editor.

The reason I use ed is that I don't want to lose what's on the screen.

I think the hard thing about all these tools is that it takes a fair amount of effort to become proficient.

Interleaf is very nice. I expect there to be a lot of competition for programs like that.

That lack of programmability is probably what ultimately will doom vi. It can't extend its domain.

So Chuck and I looked at that and we hacked on em for a while, and eventually we ripped the stuff out of em and put some of it into what was then called en, which was really ed with some em features.

It is formatted, and I'm tired of using vi. I get really bored.

I think multiple levels of undo would be wonderful, too.

I had almost rewritten all of the display code for windows, and that was when I gave up.

I think it killed the performance on a lot of the systems in the Labs for years because everyone had their own copy of it, but it wasn't being shared, and so they wasted huge amounts of memory back when memory was expensive.

I wish we hadn't used all the keys on the keyboard.

I think the wonderful thing about vi is that it has such a good market share because we gave it away.

I think one of the interesting things is that vi is really a mode-based editor.

I was surprised about vi going in, though, I didn't know it was in System V.

There are always more smart people outside your company than within it.

I set out very calculatedly to become known. The only thing I maybe miscalculated was how easy it would be.

H. Schwarzenbach is a very traditional place. The store opened in the late 1800s, importing specialty items from all over the world. It was curated before we even used that word.

The building art is man's spatial dialogue with his environment and demonstrates how he asserts himself therein and how he masters it.

'Boat Trip' is more tiresome and dumb than actually bad.

I adore the incredibly tight clothing! My own wardobe's changed - I've streamlined a little bit and definitely learnt from Joan's sleekiness and tailoring.

I love food. I'm a big food person. I'm really passionate about eating good food all the time.

Every affair is a fairy tale or a tragedy.

I've never been a Sunday-only kind of Christian.

Quitters dont gain what they have started working on waiters dont start what they could have gained. What is common there is failure.

I don't think something necessarily has to be mean or cynical to represent 'edgy.' I think 'edgy' can mean a lot of different things.

I'm just an instant flirt with most people. I'm very cheeky.

I'm using my degree. You know, I studied English and American literature in college, and now I'm an American poet.

My favorite meal is I'll make like a three-bean soup and I freeze half of it. But I'm also a big fan of meat alternatives, so I can still have my chicken and mashed potatoes and green beans, but I just have the chicken from a plant-based thing.

Beauty is being in harmony with what you are.

I think we look to the military as something that protects our shores.

It's nice to look good, but the most important thing is to be you.

There are very few record companies who will entertain a middle-aged woman coming to them with original material.

Each of us can walk only the path he sees at his own feet. Each of us is subject to the consequences of his own belief.

The best thing in business is to follow your gut. If a decision is not sitting well with you, don't just make it.
