I have to say after getting to know both i found vi alot more efficent, emacs on the other hand was alot easier to learn for the first 5 minutes or so but all the shortcuts are bullshit

vim is good. Not everyone of us has pinkies made of rubber to hit that DDR-esque ctrl-meta-alt-super-menu-cokebottle combo.

just because i've never used emacs and don't have to because i use vim or vi when vim is unavailable, of course vi is only for obscure posix unix systems i ride dirty on through ssh, vim is for home where i develop

There is BBCODE syntax highlighting in Textmate, it's the bundle named bulletin board. When you save files with the extension .bbcode, it uses this bundle. Of course if you're a true EXPERT BBCODE PROGRAMMER you can safely rename it to BBCODE from the bundle editor.

Here is the complete list of all the TM bundles you can aquire: http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/
Use the bundle 'GetBundle' to install them right from the SVN - http://projects.validcode.net/getbundle

vim is just as bad as emacs.
BSD vi or nvi or elvis or GTFO.

emacs is nothing i would run on an embedded system.

it always pays to know vi, because vi is defined in the posix standard, you will never be without

Except if your system is not posix compliant.

Son, you want to step up to the plate? I'm using w3m on my own system built from code I found in Smarties packets.

I never really got much into emacs. I am not great at vi, but I find it easier to use. I use it whenever i need to program small projects or are editing LaTex documents.

I tried to get into LaTeX once, but it was too annoying. So I just stuck with Microsoft Word.
