Speaking as someone who is probably too old to learn
EMACS now (and never frustrated enough with the ol'
IDLDE editor to justify the couple of weeks it might
take to learn it when I was younger and more open to
good suggestions), I would say that if I was mentoring
a young colleague that I wouldn't let him near a
computer until he learned EMACS (and maybe VI if
I was feeling especially ornery).

Cheers,

David

P.S. Let's just say that in my NEXT life, I'm going
to learn EMACS and John Madden's NFL Football before
I'm old enough to shave. That way I'll be pretty much
set to be a successful businessman and father. :-)
