Never understood the appeal of using a console application for text editing (yes, I can use Vi fine). It is like tying one hand behind your back and then claiming it makes you "more efficient" once you learn how to do everything one-handed.
- dysoco 14y agoMost of Vim users use GVim, and Emacs defaults to a graphical interface.
- sp4rki 14y agoNot necessarily I believe. That assumption is pretty much community, geography, age, OS, and niche dependent. I use - and have for at least 10 years - a combination of Vim, Tmux, and the usual linux utils under Zsh (I actually used screen for the first few years) for my text editing needs. That being said, I learned Vim in Linux at the same time I was learning C when I was a kid. I've noticed that generally people that started on the Rails bandwagon (which I love btw) or on OSX as their first dev platform use Mvim/Gvim. That said, I've noticed the more "unixy" people using Vim on a terminal. There are exceptions to both rules of course. Not my intention to get a debate going about this though, just offering a slightly differing point of view.
- md81544 14y agoI don't know why, I actively dislike gvim and use vim exclusively from the command line... even though it has the same functionality.
