Yes. I use a line editor but an advanced one. I'd prefer emacs but tend to us vim because it works better over poor Internet connectivity. I can (and have) used ed, nano, pico, and the like, but find that a little context helps. The mental model needed for line editing and the one needed for visual editing is different. The former requires a mental model of the document being edited where the latter just requires that you can read. There is a world of difference.
