This is the logic that makes everyone move their workflow into emacs. A lot of what we do is text editing, so having a good text editor everywhere makes sense.

This is the logic that makes everyone move their workflow into emacs. A lot of what we do is text editing, so having a good text editor everywhere makes sense. Some programs like mutt can also drop in to your editor of choice when composing an email. Imagine if we all had vim for typing up these HN comments. I'd like something like this to be more feasible. Maybe there could be a standard for forums that gives you vim editing in the same way many give you markdown. It could also be cool to support org-mode syntax.
