I know how you feel. I've been seen using BBEdit to export a text file with Unix linebreaks so I can attack it with vi (under GLTerm). I did write a utility to convert CSV into XML, allowing me to attack excel data with XSLT (and then graphviz or OmniGraffle or something else). I have a lovely little PostScript wrapper that lets me make presentation slides (which I then convert to PDF, complete with clickable URLs). Seems to me I just don't need M$.
