In order to use an editor efficiently, to really "get it",
you have to understand the way its creator gets editing done.

So I'm glad to use vi and emacs, and to learn any other
good editor (like plan 9's acme), because learning how
other people work is a great way to grow. I'm convinced
that, far from wasting time, it leads to improvements in
efficiency.
