How is Linux/vim/ED/Emacs more productive than Windows/Visual Studio? Quit pretending to be old Unix graybeards to be cool, you're not living the 80s Unix dream -- a tiling window manager isn't going to change that FAGGOT. That shit SUCKS, fucking fags.

ed - text editor
SYNOPSIS
ed [ - ] [ -x ] [ name ] DESCRIPTION
Ed is the standard text editor.
---
Ed, the greatest WYGIWYG editor of all.
ED IS THE TRUE PATH TO NIRVANA!ED HAS BEEN THE CHOICE OF EDUCATED AND IGNORANT ALIKE FOR CENTURIES! ED WILL NOTCORRUPT YOUR PRECIOUS BODILY FLUIDS!! ED IS THE STANDARD TEXT EDITOR!ED MAKES THE SUN SHINE AND THE BIRDS SING AND THE GRASS GREEN!!
When I use an editor, I don't want eight extra KILOBYTES of worthless help screens and cursor positioning code! I just want an EDitor!! Not a "viitor". Not a "emacsitor". Those aren't even WORDS!!!! ED! ED! ED IS THE STANDARD!!!
When IBM, in its ever-present omnipotence, needed to base their "edlin" on a Unix standard, did they mimic vi? No. Emacs? Surely you jest. They chose the most karmic editor of all. The standard.
Ed is for those who canremember what they are working on. If youare an idiot, you should use Emacs. If youare an Emacs, you should not be vi. If you use ED, you are on THE PATH TO REDEMPTION. THE SO-CALLED "VISUAL" EDITORS HAVE BEEN PLACED HERE BY ED TO TEMPT THE FAITHLESS. DO NOT GIVE IN!!! THE MIGHTY ED HAS SPOKEN!!!

Visual Studio + Visual Assist X allows me to code faster with C/C++ than I ever can on GNU/Linux. Gotta love auto-completion.

You seem to be under the impression that autocompletion is a feature exclusive to VS. Emacs does everything any popular IDE does. Well, except slowing down when typing because the editor has to check if the typed character triggers any of millions of helper functions that are actually harmful or insignificant.

the time spent configuring and learning Emacs simply isn't worth it when one can install an environment like Visual Studio on any compatible system and be productive with minimal effort.
I want a TextMate workalike. I used e on Windows, but it's a bit too limited (only one view per file, wtf?) and I work in Linux. I wanted cream to work, but it destroys its layout every time you open/close a view, (eg. the symbols view.)
