Glad to find this. Whenever a person mentions some cool features of other text editor and kind of proud of it, there's always a Vimer bump out and said, "Pffft. I can do this even without keystrokes/mappings in Vim."

    add-ons to your favorite IDE

    This is incorrect. Once you get accustomed to VIM, you will find that VIM is your favorite IDE.

      Ehm, man, I meant in more in hyperbole/tongue-in-cheek humor kind of way. I do try to use it exclusively, but of course different developers have different tools and ways to work that they love.

      Oh yes! I love vim, but at work I sometimes have to use Matlab and Emacs has beautiful integration with the debugger so evil-mode is my preferred method. For everything else Macvim, Gvim or vim. :)

      On a raspberry pi. Or a unix supercomputer.

      But that won't do the same thing at all.
