Is there any modern command-line based text editor?
- by Pedro Morte Rolo
A command line in a text editor is a wonderful feature. It allows the user to explore the editor's functionality and learn it's shortcuts in a textual way. It's much faster than using the mouse, and it is much easier to memorise "shortcuts" this way.
Emacs and VI provide this, though, emacs and vi are not "modern".
By "modern", I mean one that is original built to cope with the modern de-facto standards of selecting, copying, pasting, cutting, undoing, redoing and auto-completing.
Cream/vi or EmacsCUE are not valid options, since there are loads of things built over them that conflict with the mentioned stuff.
Is there any alternative?
