Maybe that's because Vim and Emacs have a steep learning curve so it's hard to switch to another editor. Or it may just be because they do all what we can want

Maybe that's because Vim and Emacs have a steep learning curve so it's hard to switch to another editor.
Or it may just be because they do all what we can want from an editor (and even more).
- aristidb 15y agoThe learning curve of Vim and Emacs making it hard to swith TO another editor? Sorry, but that makes no sense. :-) Maybe Vim and Emacs do have qualities that other editors don't match?
- alexis-d 15y agoThat's not what I meant. What I wanted to say is you put so much effort to master Vim/Emacs (as you want) so if you say "oh great a new editor i'll use it" all the efforts spent in learning Vim/Emacs are "lost". I hope you get my point! (and I agree that they have qualities that other editors don't match)
