What is the group comp.editors about ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Comp.editors is an USENET group for the discussion of editors, editing
interfaces and internals generally.
Earlier on comp.editors was a INET group, see the regular postings in
news.annonse.newusers.

If, however, you are interested in "EMACS", a very special editor,
then you should look at (and post to) these groups:
   comp.emacs
   gnus.emacs.help
However, if the question is about an emacs in relation to another type
of editor, then its probably ok to post it here.
