Stories like these amuse me, mostly because it reminds me a bit of my own journey. Years and years ago, I remember tuning vim into oblivion, spending more time in .vimrc than in my code (but I had time, Gentoo was busy compiling... something). I learned a great deal and I still use vim whenever I'm ssh'ed some place. But. I started valuing my time and I realised that tuning a text editor is not worthwhile. I don't mean it in a bad way - go nuts if you feel like it, I just chose not to do so. I'm a happy user of Sublime Text now, have been for years. It's such a relief. I know none of its features and it feels great. I enjoy the speed, mouse support, clear text, its remembering of all unsaved files and other user friendly features.
