"writing in emacs" sub brought me back here...
refusal to use notepad++ got me thinking about which editor/word processor suits the best to one or personal politics or philosophy.
for example notetab pro is swiss made "excellent, eminently usable".
far manager (and editor) is russian redscare

utilitarian.
ultra edit author is christian. does this reflect in way program works?
do you buy/use software that clashes with your own personal philosophy?
