Ummm... any text editor will do... I suppose you could use just about
anything... vi, emacs...

Then again, you can use emacs to launch space shuttles.

that depends on if your os has drivers for your coffie maker.

Most toasters are suported under linux but few coffie makers have open
source drivers.

I've tried and it can't.
I tried the following:

% make coffee

the response was:

Make: Don't know how to make coffee. Stop.

See the Linux Coffee-HOWTO at http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Coffee.html .
I'm sure the community would appreciate it if someone wrote a generic open
source driver for use with all coffee machines.

Unfortunately mine only has a Windows driver, which is very inconvenient.
I've found that while using Windows alcohol is usually more appropriate than
coffee.

did you install coffie.el?

and while you are at it do this (this is for real)
man /usr/local/share/emacs/<your version here>/etc/condom.1

Just make sure to "untabify" when you're done or you might end up with a
