You will do yourself a tremendous favour by familiarising yourself
with one of the two major Unix editors: Emacs and vi. When I say
'familiarise' I naturally mean 'live it, breathe it, freely neglect
your friends and family to learn its intricacies, sleep with several
manuals under your pillow (though neck pain may follow) and never rest
until your native language seems less natural to you than the editor's
scripting language'. They're immensely powerful editors, and after
learning one, going back to a 'plain' text editor will just feel like
crawling.

Of course, I had to mention vi, but nobody in their right mind would
actually use it. Emacs is the One True Editor:
