vi vs. emacs

Name: Anonymous 2010-06-22 13:05

Which did you use first and what was your reason for eventually switching to vi

Neither. I use Visual Studio as an enterprise solution

Considering that we've reached the point where idiots are seriously recommending ``IDEs'' instead of editors even on /prog/, I think we could use a vi/emacs thread.

used to use emacs
after many many years as sysadmin i've finally converted
the reason: it's on every system by default pretty much; emacs not so much

they teach CS at my school and recommend using emacs but all the TAs use vi so most of us eventually switched

I think it should be an ed vs. dd thread instead.

Yeah, okay what's your backend? A PHP script running on a patchy web server? And what's your frontend? Phoenix ]I[ Version 3.6.x?

Pico is not Free Software, and therefore an unacceptable choice. Use Nano, the Free alternative instead.

Semi-related. Should I learn a new IDE such as Eclipse or try to learn vim/emacs instead?
