I love vim's keybindings and cant work without them. I really like sublime but i just cant leave vim's keybindings which makes me so much efficient. Last time I tried a vim emulator for sublime it didn't go so well. it wasnt as smooth and limiting. I hope someone perfects the vim+sublime combo because that would be killer.

Ditto, in Visual Studio. I use viEmu a lot, but it has strange behavior sometimes and missing features.

  It's still the best vi emulator I've found. If you know of better ones, I'd love to hear about them.

    Check out VsVim. It's pretty solid. http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/59ca71b3-a4a3-46ca-8fe1-0e90e3f79329 http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/59ca71b3-a4a3-...

  VsVim's implementation is very complete. http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/59ca71b3-a4a3-46ca-8fe1-0e90e3f79329 http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/59ca71b3-a4a3-...

Me too. I really love the way vim manipulates text. But I really dislike vim as a dev environment. I currently run with a bunch of plugins (nerdtree, YouCompleteMe, vim-indent-guides, ctrlp.vim, etc etc) and they all roughly do what they intend to do. But at the end of the day, I find myself tweaking my vim config a lot just to get a decent experience. Vim feels a lot like Linux to me. When I was young I loved Linux as I really enjoyed tweaking it and hacking on it. But now I just want my OS to work and get out of the way, so I use OSX. I want the "OSX of editors", which is probably Sublime. But man do I love vim's text manipulation. When I was a .NET dev, Visual Studio+viemu was pretty much perfect. Text manipulation via vim, project management via VS. viemu is the only vi emulator I've found that is really well done.

You might want to try Vintageous[0], It improves the native "Vintage" mode and adds things like vim-style searching and multiple cursors support. If you are addicted to NERDTree like I was, here are some custom keymapping[1] that will allow you to navigate the sidebar using the keyboard. ctrl+h ctrl+h - takes you to the sidebar where you can navigate using j, k, h, l ctrl+h - move to pane to the left ctrl+l - move to pane to the right ctrl+shift+h - move and create pane to the right ctrl+shift+l - move and create pane to the left .. and a few others 0: https://github.com/guillermooo/Vintageous/ https://github.com/guillermooo/Vintageous/ 1: https://github.com/kylefinley/dotfiles/blob/master/sublime/User/Default%20(OSX).sublime-keymap https://github.com/kylefinley/dotfiles/blob/master/sublime/U...
