Re: Does anyone really use emacs in terminal?

[Hongxu Chen]

Apart from those lisp-family program modes, I like emacs better since
there are more elaborate configurations for me, directory local
variables for instance, which makes emacs a more modern IDE.

Emacs also has more powerful buffer handling features than Vim, although
Vim has better built-in Window and Tab operations.
