I don't know. I guess it depends on what field you're in.

"VI or emacas?" was an actual question asked in an interview. I answered
"vi" and the interviewer replied "Correct." I don't know if there's
really an right answer there, or if the interviewer just wanted to see if
I knew what he was talking about.

One of my former bosses was a big emacs fan. He basically used emacs as
his shell. He did everything with emacs. Mail, news, command shell...
