Re: For those who use UltraEdit as text-editor

Leon,

I switched to VIM a few years ago and I'm totally hooked. "intuitive" is
in the eye of the beholder, and I found it very intuitive after learning
a few fairly simple rules. The syntax coloring is the most flexible I've
seen. I use it to imitate colorforth. I use it in Linux and Windows, and
know at least one person who uses it in OS X.
