OTOH, I pray at the altar of Vim while being into the church of Emacs ;-) Modal editing is unbeatable. GNU Emacs + Viper + Vimpulse is the way to go. I agree

Modal editing is unbeatable. GNU Emacs + Viper + Vimpulse is the way to go.
I agree that Emacs allowing you to access commands while inserting text is nice. However, what are you doing in Insert mode? Hit Esc as soon as possible, my friend ;-)

- lelele 16y agoYou wrote "stay in Insert mode", therefore I thought you were making the mistake of staying in Insert mode longer than needed (if I misunderstood what you meant, please ignore my rhetorical question). I didn't become proficient at modal editing until I followed the advice of staying in Insert mode as little as possible, just to enter short bursts of text (and then remapping the Esc key becomes a must).
- leif 16y agoYes. I was saying something about the post I replied to, I wanted to point out that it's easier to ease into emacs without sacrificing the chance to learn about it for familiarity.
- jff 16y agoYour sacrifice is consumed in a flash of light! --More-- Unluckily, you feel the power of Emacs decrease!
