After constantly hearing the many praises for Vim, I decided to use it for a few months as my default text editor. From my experiences so far, I can truly say that Vim the most impressive text editor that I have come across. It does take some getting used to (like all worth-while tool), but once you become accustomed to the basics, you will be continually amazed by the many (incredibly many) features that it possesses. For example, it has great support for latex. Also, as of Vim 7.0, you can easily turn on the spell-checker with this command:
set spell (to turn on)
set nospell (to turn off)
So far, it seems like the Vim guys have thought of my every need. I am now convinced (also syntax highlighting is another of my favorites). So if you have so time to spare, get to know Vim.
-- Enjoy, Internet land
