No, of course not. I'm using vim for editing text files too, but I find readline's line editing emacs mode easier (for example in bash and other programs that use readline). Actually I've always been tempted to learn emacs as well, but never had a strong enough motivation. I think it is suited a little better for editing multiple files, and there's also the Lisp appeal. Never enough time though. And with learning Lisp I'll probably wait for the release of Paul Graham's Arc[1]. Best. [1] http://paulgraham.com/arc.html -- [a]
