Acme, of course!

GNU Emacs.  It's also the most autistic one.

Edit two small files, get a mess of 12 buffers. And you don't need tabs, because it's so easy for us, nerds, to type C-x-b name-of-the-buffer to switch between the two buffers (among the other 10 garbage buffers).
Anyway that default (and totally not annoying) behavior is easily overrided once you've mastered Emacs Lisp! Provided, of course, you don't update, or all you seettings and dirty hacks would be broken every 6 months.
Emacs = old and buggy framework to write yourself an editor (in a shitty language).

i prefer vim, it doesn't matter really: choose one and learn it well. jack of all trades, master of none, bitter and full of criticism...don't be that guy

I have no trouble with letting XMonad being my tab manager (if you don't like it, you can use awesome, dwm, wmii etc etc). Also there are at least two implementations of tabs that work on recent versions of GNU Emacs.  I have tried one of them, but then removed it because it was superfluous.

get a mess of 12 buffers
IDO existed for ages, and I can switch between buffers in a fraction of a second by typing a unique part of their name.  This is a non-problem for me, and never was, in 6 years or so of using Emacs for most of my programming (both personal and at work).  My colleague, also a emacser, has hundreds of buffers (he works on a much larger project with hundreds of files).  He has no more trouble navigating between them than I do.

>>13,15
In the GTK version, if you ctrl-click, you get a menu with all the buffers.

I use Sam.

you're a massive faggot if you aren't using sublime text 2

>>18
I think you got it all wrong.

>>17
Didn't the only Sam user commit suicide a week or two ago?

unfortunately, Bjarne is still alive.

Don't encourage him!

W-where's your foreskin?

Rabbi Shlomo Goldstein ate it.

Emacs is amazing.

mg is quite nice for shell scripts and other trivial editing.

Gedit.

Isn't it kind of awkward outside of Plan 9?

It's bloody brilliant there though.

I saw >>28-san in my font family. I believe it was the Comic Sans family.
