Talk: Edlin

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

what is it less powerful than? and is this NPOV? Iammaxus 04:53 29 Jun 2003 (UTC)


An anonymous user, User:148.126.100.80, is repeatedly removing the paragraph below from the article with the edit summary: Again: This is not a quippy advocacy blog. I'm sure that is very funny to all 16 zealots who run this place, but unless there is PROOF it should be removed or reworded. -- "The edlin line editor was thrown together in two weeks in 1981, and was expected to have a six-month shelf life. Some industry pundits have suggested that this is the only Microsoft-written MS-DOS program that is bug-free; this is entirely false, however, as Seattle Computer Products, not Microsoft, wrote EDLIN."

I don't know which is "correct" but I think that the burden of proof is on User:148.126.100.80 to demonstrate what is NPOV about that paragraph.

Thanks, BCorr|Брайен 16:59, May 25, 2004 (UTC)

Yeah, well, this sentence is a very good joke, but the way it's turned it took me quite a few seconds to catch it, so considering that the may goal here is not being funny... Oh, or maybe it is anyway. :-)
By the way, my Win2k version of EDLIN does not work properly. --Valmi 22:55, 7 Oct 2004 (UTC)
