I wish i could get on with it is the simple answer! Once one has
learnt the keybindings it's great in the sense that on console one has
got vi and on graphical gvim.

No difference for coding really... but for text editing words i think
it is very poor. I read somewhere that its wordwrap was poor and i
have to agree. tbh i think for console editors nano is better for
wordwrap and easier to learn but it's a graphical app that i'm really
after. Why graphical editors can handle wordwrap better i don't know?

Of all keybindings i've used i have to say that Wordstar is by far the
best - it's just a shame that there isn't a graphical version of Joe
or E3 that does keybindings in emacs, wordstar, nano, and i think a
couple of others. That would then suit anyone wanting a general editor
without the slowness and complexity of large apps like emacs.
