Derek Thurn has written probably the best comparison of Vim and Emacs ever written. In particular, he's confirmed that I'm not the only person in the known universe who uses vi for quick sysadmin editing tasks and emacs for larger scale coding efforts. And he's managed to do this in <a href="http://www.thurn.ca/why_i_switched_from_vim_to_emacs">the most fence-straddling way possible</a>.</p> | |

I'd also add that Gabriel Lanaro's <a href="http://gabrielelanaro.github.com/emacs-for-python/">emacs for python starter kit</a> tipped the scales in favor of emacs for me having come from vim. | |
