I appreciate that.  I spent the first 20+ years of my career as a system and 
network administrator, so I'm a hopeless vi guy.  I tried to learn Emacs 
several times over the years, with no joy.  (Obscure pun?)  I was too 
impatient.  "I know how to do this with vim, don't have time to learn a 
different way."  Definitely system admin land.  If I had started as a 
programmer, I'd probably be an Emacs user.  This might be an odd comparison, 
but it's like Python vs. Java to me.  Python is small, relatively fast, good 
libraries, etc., whereas Java takes a while to instantiate and has all kinds of 
amazing tools and languages in its ecosystem.

We also tried Eclipse for a while, tried to turn it into the front end for our 
processing framework, but talk about the opposite philosophy of the Unix 
ethic...

Hello,

maybe you should look in direction of org-mode with emacs. I'm short
here, but it's a lot of documentation on it.

Best Regards,
