Linus Torvalds is definitely one, not just because of the kernel, but also because he is a good role model. In terms of tools, I am certainly indebted to Joseph H. Allen, for his own editor.

My mileage was a bit long due to various reasons. I don’t think that it should have been that long, so that drives the ‘rants’.
