I don't have special skills. Others are far beyond me. I'm just an avg joe programmer. Learning the average editor would only take one weeks worth of investment and would provide a lifetime of productivity. To me it's a very good trade. If I could encourage other programmers to do one thing it would be learn a capable text editor. Don't build your house by tapping the nails in with a rock. Spend a bit of time and learn how to use a hammer and learn to use it well. There are many good ones out there just waiting for you to pickup and use for free.

I guess that you are right.
You are a programmer, I'm not. So your word should be the last.
In the last 4 years I built tables and chairs (I'm 43)... with just a hammer and a hand-saw.

Thanks anyways for listening.
