This post makes me so glad to have been forced into vi all those years ago.
Its everywhere, its quick, and unless you've done some pretty nutty stuff in your configs, basic usage is the same between a heavily customized vi and the vi you find bundled with every is bundled windows and gentoo. (Not to disparage any preference for emacs; it just seems a bit much to have to fall back to an entirely different editor seems a bit much)
- im_down_w_otp 9y agoI don't _have_ to "fallback". I just choose not to interrupt the extremely rich development environment I have setup in Emacs and my projectile projects by bringing in random other files/buffers. It's akin to the same justification for why I wouldn't bother opening a random tiny file in Xcode or IntelliJ IDEA. I don't use Emacs as just a simple text editor. I can probably count the times I've typed `emacs some/file/path.whatever` into the shell on one hand.
