vi is a textmode editor. It’s so bad even the author regrets it.

For some fucking reason, Linux distributions almost all include it by default.

The only editor I know of which can handle huge files. So horribly horrible though. =(

Ruby-capable, I hear.

A terminal multiplexer

I use it only in fairly dire circumstances, usually when at the TTY console. It’s essential in that circumstance, even if it’s only to lock the console screen (with ^a^x)
