    Checked out Doom Emacs and Neovim 0.12.1 (nvim-qt) instances on antiX 26. I had some minor editing issues and corrections. I don’t believe they were here; they were on the partition I was working on yesterday – the antiX 23.2 Full Runit that I’ve since replaced with Slackware. As far as I know everything is fine now. In any case, here it’s fine; same with MX Linux; between the two, they are the “main” distributions I count on.

    I continue to have success with antiX 26, and this morning I was able to tweak a few things on Slackware before coming back to antiX 26 this morning. On 26, GNU Emacs and XLibre received new nosystemD updates; I verified that the two editing configurations above continue to work; also verified that my custom XnEdit configuration works too. Just for fun, I also checked out a TCL-based text editor, alited, and it’s fine too. So the conclusion of this testing is that my hobby of working with a variety of text editors and integrated development environments remains solid with antiX 26.
