I wonder if there are any command-line edditors that are accessible and provide 
the level we all need of edditing, like headings and formatting?

I don't know of any Command Line editors that will do what you want per say, 
though there is always LaTex. Be aware though that it will take time to learn. 
It is incredibly powerful and is  considered by some, to be the gold standard 
for any sort of writing. I am not sure how easy it is though to convert a LaTeX 
file to RTF or DOC, as they are both proprietary  formats. I believe that it is 
possible, though at some cost to any special formatting or attributes such as 
footnotes.

You could also look at John Gruber's Markdown or Fletcher Penny's 
Multimarkdown. Both of these are designed for web publishing, without the need 
to know HTML. The latter also has facility for footnotes. But again, converting 
to RTF may be problematic and is not (as far as I remember)  officially 
supported.

Feel free to write me off-list if you'd like further information.
