Re: The end of the line

Vim works fine without cygwin on windows and I am sure emacs or its various derivitives have cygwin-less windows ports as well.

It has come to this. Unless miracles happen, I don't think I will
be using or working on Ion much anymore. Cygwin is a big pile of
shit [1], with an even bigger pile of filth for a project manager; 
It has no hope. A typical FOSS project, that is. I will be trying 
to complete my Windows transition, and reduce my Cygwin dependency, 
hopefully to nil. This will mean that I can not use Ion anymore;
I do not personally have the time for a Windows port.

PS. I will need a decent Windows text editor to even attempt
moving out of Cygwin. Any suggestions? I need set-mark
type selection (I don't like shift selection); configurable
key bindings, with support for key sequences (^K B, etc.);
LaTeX syntax highlighting, maybe Lua, etc.
