I already know Vim, but nowadays I prefer an application that I can just launch and it just works, out of the box. With Vim I need to read the docs of plugins, configure the plugins, remember what are the keyboard shortcuts for spell-checking, etc. I should maybe try GVim instead of using Vim in a terminal. Or Neovim. I've tried to install scite and textadept, but on Linux it's a bit difficult with Scintillua. And I'm not sure that command completion is supported. BTW I'm the author of GNOME LaTeX ;-) https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/GNOME-LaTeX (this text editor supports only LaTeX, unfortunalety). If I have the time I would like to implement a new text editor specialized for TeX and ConTeXt.
