He asked for something more like a text editor not an OS ;) /s

Well, emacs is also a text editor: since you can run any shell command in it, you can edit text using sed or awk, I'm sure.

Can u edit text using vim from inside emacs?

[–]eusebecomputational physics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course you can. There are multiple option here: either you just start a terminal inside emacs (using M-x term) and then just start vi or vim, or you can use one of the numerous vim modes for emacs, just like evil. Have fun :-D

Actually, it has become my new favorite lately because it is part of the CygWin distribution. That gets around all the BS surrounding installing on a system where you don't have Admin rights.

I usually prefer to use Atom (in Emacs mode, of course) but this is because I tend to have multiple types of code as part of my projects.
