   And I've used it for over ten years, which made me even enjoy Windows.   
   I had to bring together a lot of programs, though.  For instance, when   
   you load ESHELL, you still need various UNIX programs to be comfortable   
   such as find, cat and so on.  Sure, ESHELL provides many replacements   
   with built-in Lisp procedures, but not everything.
