I love Vim. I really do. And it works wonderfully on both Linux and 
Windows with Exuberant ctags (http://ctags.sourceforge.net/) on Python 
code. However the only thing that's bugging me is once I'm used to using 
Vi(that's practically the only editor I've ever use), I'm forever stuck 
with using Vi. I wish all other real IDEs comes with Vi mode, or I can 
somehow embed Vim in there (or someone else doing it for me as I'm not 
that technical). I would love to be using an IDE if it doesn't slow me down.
