Why not!! I too am a die hard VI fan, and have been using Elvis for
several years. I had toyed with microEmacs and didn't like it, so didn't
really look at EMACs until recently. I found that there were a couple
vi emulators, so I tried them out and choose viper mode. It has a very
good vi (not everything, but most of the best stuff) mode, but now I
can get all the features of EMACS and still have my vi interface. Like
multiple windows, compile and edit in the editor and my favorite,
the : is emulated on the EMACS command line, which allows for recall
of previous commands, great for long subs commands where I forgot the
/ or misspelled a word. I still use elvis for quick power up and edit.
But when I plan to spend a few hours developing, I pop up emacs and
use it. Oh, and did I mention all the great on-line info pages with all
the gcc info pages, libc function descriptions, oh and... well you get
the idea. VI is a great editor, emacs makes it better.
