I use:
- emacs for TeXing and writing programs and any decent thing, because it
has syntax-highlighting and powerful macros. You also want to learn the
basic key-sequences, as they are the same in _many_ other Un*x apps, too
(bash is a _very_ good example of that).
- joe for quick config-file changes on the command line (hint: if you
know emacs, try starting joe as jmacs, it then uses emacs-keybindings).
- vi if there is nothing else available, i.e. only / is mounted. It pays
to know at least the following commands:
Quit (like escaping the trap :-):
':q!<return>'
Insert text:
'i<type text><ESC>'
Delete char:
'x'
Save and quit:
'ZZ'
