'Me too'. I got used to it on Irix machines some time ago, now I can't stand any other X11-based editor. (For small administrative tasks in the terminal, I use whatever is available, but prefer nano.)
I do worry about its future; it uses Motif as its toolkit, which is on its way out.

nedit? Bah. I know one guy who's favourite editor is xedit. He is believed
sane.

Can also use lesstif (a Motif clone). Essentially, even if Motif disappears
or your system doesn't have Motif libraries, lesstif is still around so you should have no problems. I have a feeling someone may be GTK-ising it somewhere too.
