BTW you have never tried to code pages and pages using just VI probably....
Any person in their right state of mind would not use VI, unless you are writing short programs (like shell script), or very simple applications. Renounce to auto correction, color syntax, auto completion, and a ton more of functionalities, when you are coding millions of lines, is not different from running win 3.1 on a modern computer :) As much as I love terminal, there are things that are not feasible without a good text editor with plenty of functions; without even mentioning the pros of a real IDE, when you need to debug and such.
