Re:Ask HN: Why do you still use Emacs/Vim?

Really fast editing features. I have found there's no real winner between Vi(m) or Emacs - I can use both although I'm more used to GVim.
Shortcuts in either editor allow quick editing compared to non Vi(m)/Emacs editors.
Also, I have a finely tuned tool-chain outside of GVim that (so far) does what I want better than what IDE's provide, depending on the language or target platform.

(I still use IDE's with java, for example)
