From my experience, my colleague who were programming with kwrite and nano were the worst programmer ever. Of course, this means absolutely nothing about you. But maybe you don't see the point in the vim vs emacs war, however, don't you like having a complete IDE to help you out?
And the idea of vim vs nano.. it's just that once you've learn a couple of commands, you can't go back. And, once you've learn those obscure commands, who want them everywhere. (Delete up to the next "(", vim got it easily)
- tmcw 16y agoMy colleague who uses nano and kate exclusively is the best coder at the company. Lots of great writers used crappy typewriters or pencil or pen. Who cares?

- cperciva 16y agodon't you like having a complete IDE to help you out? Not really. Before I moved to FreeBSD I used Watcom and MSVC, and I don't feel that I'm missing anything they ever gave me. I get syntax highlighting and open-close matching from kwrite, and everything else I ever want I can do with a shell, make, grep, etc.
- deno 16y agoYou can actually use VIM mode in KWrite/Kate ;) It's just basic editing features but works alright. And Kate does have all kind of neat stuff already. Like Ctrl+Shift+D for toggling comments? You have to install plugin to get that in VIM. Just know your tools and work with what you're comfortable with.
