There's a short, but sweet, review of the latest version of Emacs 22, the venerable and equally loved and loathed editor primarily for Linux and Unix like OS, but also available for Windows for those who can't do without it.

Those who are massive fans waited six years. I've been using the new version for the last month and I must say I'm pleased so far. I use barely 5% of the functionality, but I'm happy to say that I'd be pretty much lost without it.

For those of you who haven't used it yet, or who use it but don't feel you are getting enough out of it, there's a cool series at IBM developerworks on using the emacs editing environment.
