I wrote this guide and I'm convinced basic vi usage is essential to learn. I have to encouter a system without vi yet.

I absolutely agree — vi knowledge is essential, and I don't have it yet. Don't capitulate and let others be like me.

The first time I go to a machine for the first time, and I need an editor, I fire up emacs. If it isn't there, I do [apt-get|yum] install emacs, and then I fire up emacs.

Lucky you :) Good luck running emacs on some embedded things.
