Subject: Re: g++
I started out as a Vim lover many years ago. A supervisor at my internship
nudged me (in his gentle, wise, fatherly way) into trying to become tool
agnostic.

So, my donation of kerosene to the embers of this editor war: Learn one
editor. Then learn another. Then another! Knowing the basics of vim and
emacs both gives you a lingua franca across Linux, Unix, BSD, OS X,
Windows, and more.

How many programs grok hjkl natively? Or C-n/C-p/C-b/C-f? How many more
have plugins to add such functionality?

Diversity helps. :)
