Why not just use an editor without awful UX?
- waynecochran 8y agoThat would have been my choice. Unfortunately I wasn't the one that made the decision to have the students use vi.
- jki275 8y agoIt's not really awful, especially when you compare it to something like ed, edlin, or edt...
- na85 8y agoThe fact that $thing has some negative qualities is not erased by pointing at $otherThing which scores lower on that particular dimension.
- jki275 8y agoThere aren't really any editors that have no negative qualities... vi is a very good editor. You have to learn about three things to use it effectively. It's really not a high bar to entry.
