Httpie: A CLI http client

So is vi. I still use emacs.

Using only tools based on ubiquity is rather short sighted.

Can we not argue about vi(m) vs. emacs? Thank you. :-)

That wasn't really the point. I think they're saying that just because a tool is ubiquitous doesn't mean that it's objectively the best tool for the job in all cases. Just as vi and Emacs coexist, curl's existence doesn't make httpie pointless.
