Love Vim. Keep trying to grok emacs because I keep believing with that eLisp programming language in there it has got to be super powerful, but can't quite get past the Wordstar finger-pretzel key combinations. Nano (formerly pico, I believe, from the people who brought you Pine and now Alpine) is great if you have a few lines to pop in a really quick change to, but falls out quickly when you need lots of editor horsepower.

There. I've done it now. Probably started a holy war over editor supremecy and possession of the ultimate Truth! ;-)
