| 520 | 3 | |a Most debugging tools concentrate on finding and fixing relatively infrequent deeper bugs, such as errors in algorithms. But in practice, too much time goes to edit-compile-debug cycles for minor bugs, such as typos and "brainos," use of "kill" instead of "delete," or reversal of the order of 2 arguments to a function. By catching these problems in the editing stage, Emacs Menus speeds programming's inner loops. Humans can store only so much at a particular time, and our ability to change the contents of that finite memory over time is limited. Overcoming that limitation is the strong suit of the computer. Computers are good at storing and searching large amounts of data. Emacs Menus helps each member of the programming team - a computer and a person - optimize what it, he, or she does best and interface smoothly with the other half of the team. | |
