I think we have 2 winners:
Emacs on the "platform" (superior scripting language (elisp), better external process management, better instrumentation).
Vim on the modal-editing interface: you can find it in nearly all editors (and even browsers) nowadays.
A combination of the two would be awesome, correction "is" awesome: http://spacemacs.org http://spacemacs.org

- ageofwant 11y agoAnd then of course people like the spacemacs leader-key binding and port it back to vim :-) https://github.com/jimmay5469/vim-spacemacs https://github.com/jimmay5469/vim-spacemacs https://github.com/sunaku/vim-shortcut https://github.com/sunaku/vim-shortcut https://github.com/sthysel/vim-spacemacs https://github.com/sthysel/vim-spacemacs
- cies 11y agoI should use that! I try to keep a vim config that is mostly compatible with my Emacs setup (for when I'm remotely logged in to a place that has my dotfiles, but not emacs). Sure I know about tramp-mode, but sometimes having vim around saves the day.
- tetraodonpuffer 11y agoeven without going full spacemacs you can do what I do, install evil, have it set to emacs editing by default, and set up a keybinding to go into vi editing (I use double-caps) it's awesome and really best of both worlds This said it is exciting to see vim being updated, I use vim quite a bit if I am ssh-ing places and the more functionality the better
