Clearly the best OpenSource editor. If people say it's too complex etc; that's partially true but it's worth learning it. Really, really powerful and you can script it in many languages including ruby and python.

The only competition here is EMACS. I prefer vim because it's more lightweight and installed practically everywhere. It takes an effort to learn all the commands but once you're there, the coding efficiency goes to 500 % and you don't ever want to go back. Truly the ultimate editor.
The editor I can use everywhere: Windows, Linux, AIX, HP-UX. Either in a graphic environment or in a text terminal. Using the same configuration and plugins that I have accumulated for years from hosts to hosts.
I'm everywhere at home once I have Vim running! This is the swiss knife for a software contractor like me.
