I've heard great things about both, but I've also heard there's a fairly
steep learning curve for picking up even the most basic commands. I've
used Emacs and vi a couple of times under Linux Mandrake PPC from the
command line and it's pretty intimidating. I just fired it up for the
first time in YellowDog Linux under KDE and it's a bit more friendly
here. I'll give it a shot on OSX, but it's going to be hard to beat
JEdit for a comfortable IDE.

Hey, how do you open a remote file (ftp) with vi or Emacs?

Thanks,

Mac OS X comes with emacs --  but a it is a CLI editor.

There is a vim for Mac OS X at:

I am downloading it now -- will give it a try and comment later.
