Simply use emacs!!! If you open a code, the mode is automatically detected
and loaded. start typing and hit tab at every new line, you get
automatically indented code. If you need to indent code use C-x h (select
whole buffer) and C-M-\. Need more - then do a C-x h and M-x untabify
(convert indent to spaces)


vi was actually meant to be used over networks, whereyou dont run vi on the
system you are using, and so need "effecient" keystrokes, but I dont get the
fun in using vi on desktops, when you can do everything of that and more
from emacs
shell: M-! command <RET>
shell mode: M-x shell - you can unlimited history of command and output that
can be saved!!!
CVS integration. svn also can be done using scritps.
cscope and tags integrated.

In addition you can compile from the editor itself and it parses the output
for errors and takes you to those lines.

And if nothing else, then lisp is a good language to learn......
