Emacs is terrible

It's simply impossible to become as quick in Emacs as one might be in vim. I've been trying, I've really been trying hard to like Emacs, because I want a decent IDE for Lisp. But it's just terrible. The editor is always getting in my way.

I have a new purpose in life. To clone vim in Common Lisp. This isn't reinventing the wheel, because whatever vi-mode they have in Emacs is still corrupted. A new viitor must surface, pure and handsome, with all the Lisp-friendliness of Emacs and all the awesomeness of vi.

I just wanted to get this off my chest, /prog/.

Nice, but one thing bothers me
Likewise, the vi user begins his journey by getting used to the idea that he will never touch arrow keys again: he must instead replace them with hjkl.
There is nothing wrong with hjkl or C-f,C-b,C-n,C-p, and I don't know why so many people complain about this. If they want to use the arrow keys they can, quit whining like little children.
