I can't use vim. God, I've tried, and tried. I'm too old. I just can't do it. So I stick with a big IDE (or Sublime 2 which I'm liking more and more).

I had to telnet into a Centos box recently and the only thing I could find was vi. Took me a few minutes but I managed. I was proud. ;)

I bet you can. But can likely use emacs as well. I think if I had to pick one piece of software to live with on my desert island, it'd be emacs (assuming I had a reasonable boot loader and a filesystem to sit under it).

Choosing emacs is cheating, it contains every other program you might ever want to use.

Knowing/using ssh way more important than vi/vim.

I do use ssh. I call it telnet since ssh is just telnet on roids.

I'm curious, how long did you spend trying to use Vim?

[crag]

A few days. I must admit, I was resistant from the start.

Ok you've shammed me. I'm gonna start learning and using VIM. Even if it kills me.
