Slow learning curve worth the time won with it

  by mortimer

Well, without Emacs, I wonder what I would have coded and how much!

Once you know how to configure and use it correctly and find the modes for your needs, it's the ultimate toolbox for any text editing you need to do, from coding to document writing.

By far the best

  by Rodrigo Lazo

Emacs is more than an editor. It does everything I need: from chatting to email, and even some text editing!. It doesn't have the leanest learning curve, but every single minute spent on learning emacs becomes hours of saving time latter. Totally worth it!
