rotf... lol... .... enjoyed this one... i love emacs for the fact that it is great and people have done great things with it... and maybe, someday when i have the energy and enough skills, i may also do a thing or two.... and furthermore, for the fact that rms wrote it.... i love it for everything it is.... a heritage in itself, and things which i dont yet know about it...
but peronally, i dont like using it. not necessarily because it is not a better choice, but more so because i dont have all that it takes to show off my emacs skills.. and imho, many others like me dont either... for ease of use and getting my things done, gedit and vi feature most prominently (almost always) in my usage... i hope that's what both nepbabu and elite warrior (his name is misspelt, that is a historical mistake again ... lol) are trying to say.... well, my vote gets divided over both of these editors...
