Between vi and Emacs, Emacs always wins. vi is very poor editor, barely better than Notepad from Windows. It's Vim where all the features lay.

- a3n 12y agoEven before vim was available, I preferred vi. I just like its style of interaction for text editing better. Enjoy your emacs.
- RexRollman 12y agoVim is bloated. I prefer Nvi.
- bootload 12y ago"vi is very poor editor" But Vi is better than Ed where Emacs (~30Mb) cannot be installed on low memory contstrained. For me where there are no constraints, the choice is personal preference.
