I didn't like pico because it is too small and not featured enough (I don't know what version of pico I used, it is possible a newer version is released that addresses my complaints.) The balance I think is jove, which is Jonathans Own Version of Emacs. jove has many features from emacs, yet is smaller and easier to master. -Naved
