  • argh… software annoyances

    My list of you can’t get there from here software annoyances:

    • Nautilus: you can drag the Home, Start Here, and Trash icons over to the right of the screen, but the icons for removable media always float back to the left — right under where my windows are. It doesn’t seem possible to save the position.
    • GNU Emacs‘s HTML editing mode doesn’t have a close-tag function. PSGML under XEmacs had this a long time ago, and jEdit will close a tag as soon as you type </ (although, being written in Java, it does so very slowly). So why not the editor of nearly-champions?
      Easy Solution: go back to using XEmacs — it’s just so much better for creating XHTML.

    I hope only to be able to delete entries from this list, but I’ve a nasty foreboding that it’ll grow.
