I'm not so sure about that. Vim has syntax highlighting, programming language support (assisted via ctags), two terminal emulators, a window manager, two (arguably three) programming languages, transparent remote file editing...
So anyway, I use an editor that doesn't waste my time: Ed, man! !man ed.
Makes perfect sense. It is the standard editor.
