Getting started with Emacs and having basic skills (load, save, cut, copy, paste, search) is WAY faster than with vi. I don't use more than a tiny fraction of emacs's capabilities and likely never will, but the initial part of the learning curve is way easier than it is with something like vi.
- jimhefferon 7y agoBut emacs is not against vi. When I taught a class where I started by introducing emacs, the first question I got was how to make it have this color text and that hentai page background.
- dhosek 7y agoI generally use aquamacs when I need emacs these days (especially since Catalina no longer includes the terminal-based emacs by default). It offers a lot of customizations through menus for the appearance, not to mention that it supports standard cmd-whatever shortcuts for the basic functionality.
