You want evil-mode.

  Or spacemacs.

    ... which uses needs evil-mode

      Evilmode is useless for long-time vim users with muscle memory. Things such as different behavior of ?<Up> or /<Up> are frustrating. Also many popular plugins (such as orgmode) interfere with evilmode. And movement between windows. And there's not even a consistent keystroke to close a window in emacs, and evilmode's mapping of q muddies the situation even further.

        I'm not sure why you're telling me this. I'm just pointing out that Spacemacs is not an alternative to evil-mode, since the latter is a fundamental part of the former.

          Never mind, my comment is a bit misplaced.

    I'm a long-term vim user but I felt the need to look into emacs to see what it had to offer. I messed about with various implementations of emacs until I found Spacemacs and then - may I quote Keats here? "Or like stout Cortez when with eagle eyes He star'd at the Pacific—and all his men Look'd at each other with a wild surmise— Silent, upon a peak in Darien." Substitute Spacemacs for Pacific and we're on the same page!
