    There is a decent text editor in emacs: run "Meta-X term" and when it asks you what shell to use, enter in "/bin/vim". There is also a way to run emacs within vim, if you want to do that: ":! emacs".

    The fact that both of those are possible is a testament to the flexibility of standard Unix tools that the proprietary world has never matched!
