Dude, first of all, what is wrong with you replying to a VERY OLD thread like this?
Second: You say that his comment is bs, so what is YOUR comment called?

And third: yes, he's right... Real men uses vi, not nano

Real men don't discuss about editor preferences. That's so lame.

the only topics worth reviving a three-year-dead-thread:
1) bsd vs gpl
2) vim vs emacs
3) conservative vs liberal
4) atheism vs theism
5) truth/beauty vs top/bottom

personally, im for truth/beauty. who wants to have a go?

And why not 6) algebraic vs graphic solving of equations?

I consider that comment offensive, sexist, overall discriminatory and just plain rude. It was left like this and with jedi's high count of posts/received thanks plus two thanks to the post in question it may look like dominant in the community for a newcomer or a by-passer. I'm just very tired of fanatics trying to shove their beloved editor/OS/religion/whatever down everyone's throat.

P.S. I don't demand any deletion (ignore the flag please). I've just said what I think about it and that's enough.

editor wars are generally useless because everyone who fights them already knows theyre right. the problem is that the two sides are usually arguing over COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS.

which-editor-is-objectively-the-best VS preferences-are-always-subjective

the latter is usually the camp saying STOP WITH THE PREACHING AND JUST LET ME LIVE MY LIFE, while the former says OBJECTIVE REALITY! IT EXISTS! YOU LIVE THERE! USE VIM, DAMNIT!

being right doesnt always make you right...
