Emacs, or Vim?

<< < (2/9) > >>

MarathoN:
I have to say Vim, best command line tool I have used so far. ;)

Calum:
clearly vim, or some type of vi

the reason i say this is you know it will be installed. if i log into a shell account, it's not likely to have emacs on it, but you know vi will be there.

i used to be a real emacs advocate but i have to say for a text editor, vim edits text. it's a steep curve to start with, but so is emacs.

having said that, for beginners, pico and nano are great and so is jmacs and jpico

solemnwarning:
Kwrite\Kdevelop and nano

worker201:
vi*

just because that's what know.  To be perfectly honest, I don't think I've ever used any other command-line text editor.

As far as non-commandline stuff, I like gedit, it works for me.

Refalm:
I actually use nano in console and vim in X for editing HTML or CSS.
