I've been using non-vi editors all my career. Last 3 months I started using VI and find it really hard to switch to another editor. I love the customizations that VI has, love the macros, I don't think of editing as movement of the cursor, its now like writing except the first writing tells you how to edit the actual words.<p>So I noticed people lovin' on Sublime 2. So my question is: has anyone made the switch of VI -> ST2 or have people just liked the shiny interface but disliked the actual editing itself?
Well if you like modal editing you can use sublime text 2's built in vi emulation. So if you donwload sublime text 2 (you can try it without buying it) and in the user settings have<p><pre><code> {
"ignored_packages": []
}
</code></pre>
You can use vi style modal editing with most if not all of your usually vi commands.
