I like emacs and it is currently my editor of choice.  I hate vi, but then 
some other will say: "I use vi and hate emacs" or something like that.

My suggestion is this:  Try to get hands-on experience on as many editors as
you can.  Think about their configurability, their versality, memory
requirements etc.  Then the choice is up to you.

A few you might try to get you hands on:
Micro-emacs, vi, jove, vde, edlin (no, I didn't say that :-) .......



Please let's not start another my-editor-is-the-best-but-[insert-your-favourite-
anti-editor-in]-really-stinks war.
