Especially tex.. looks like there are a few people who are starting to
make good progress on open source word processors. Tex is, of course,
useful for lots of people nonetheless, but it is something that people
can get if they know they want it...
I think having gnumacs as standard is not so bad... It's a pretty
common editor, even on commercial unixes.
