Amusingly I never learned VI. I had worked for a group that was beholden to Interactive
Systems editor (which I believe was a variant of Yost's Rand Editor) and by the time
I left there I was working with various pre-GNU Unix EMACS (Warren Montgomery, JOVE,
Gosling). I even worked for Unipress for a very short period as a consultant.
To this day if there's no EMACS I juse use ed or ex. It always amazed my
coworkers how fast I fly in line editor mode.

Sure, go ahead. As a firm adherent to "ex", I'll umpire the
contest.
