 >> Well I view this as a mixed blessing.  There's a (imv, false) "meme"
going 'round that one can get by with marginal competence in a large number
of languages.

jt - what on earth has this got to do with the topic?  Fact of the matter is
that we have to deal with multiple languages day in day out (DDS, CL and RP
IV just to name three).  One editing environment common to whatever language
I want/need to use is surely a plus.  If I decide that I want/need to
transition to C++ or Java (and that this perhaps will become my "one true
language") then I can stay in the same tool environment that I am familiar
with.

Win win.
