I grew up on emacs. One of my first jobs I sat down at a terminal and was editing some files with pico, it’s what I knew since I used that fantastic email client pine. I was quickly told by my the lead developer that I need to use a real text editor if I’m going to progress in my career. He told me I need to try emacs, and after suffering through a few weeks of memorizing multi command-char sequences and training the muscle memory in my pinky to perform bizarre contortions of my left hand just to save my file, I became a convert. I found out a few months later that the developer who convinced me to use emacs was a vi user all along. I think I was a victim of a cruel joke or hazing ritual, but I learned to love emacs, and when I am not coding in a desktop IDE (IntelliJ) then I am using emacs.
