    Although I'd rather use Emacs for anything serious, I don't have it installed
    everywhere either: vi or ee do have size advantages, you're certainly right.

    However, the ChangeLog format is pretty simple, no reason you couldn't emulate
    it by hand. Entries look like:

    2003-05-30 Charles Swiger <chuck@pkix.net>
             * added Mersenne Twister RNG in place of srandom()

             * used cproto to convert old K&R C code to ANSI with prototypes,
             which fixed a program hang in the dust accretion process

    ...but emacs does a good job of autoindenting new entries for you, and
    wrapping the text, etc.
