Blah blah blah another "modal editing is better" article.

And once again, I'm not impressed. You may not like GUIs, but I do. You may think that keeping your hands on the keyboard and off the mouse makes you more productive, but I don't.

We all have our preferences. Yours are not better than mine. End of story.



they're not mutually exclusive. vim's modal features are handy even if you use gvim - e.g. you could select a range of text with the mouse and use y to yank it because you were in editing rather than insert mode
