“Remember this post? I’m doing it again. I
once said that your choice of a web browser reveals something about
your personality. Same can be said about the choice of your
preferred text editor. Tell me what is the default editor on your
system, and I will tell you what kind of person you are.“Vim or Vi
“You are a minimalist at heart, but you value raw power of a
sophisticated, and yet simple editor. You hate to waste key
strokes. You laugh derisively at the fools fighting with their
silly Notepad like editors. You either use a traditional unix
keyboard or you switched around Ctrl and Caps Lock so that they are
in their popper places…”
