Please, let's not let this thread become a text-editor thread. I'm sure
vi is an excellent editor, but I don't want to get distracted from the
process of getting joe onto the DVD.

Since you mentioned vi, I would say that I learned how to use it back in
the 90's and fall back onto it when other text editors like joe, pico,
emacs and nano aren't available. I just prefer the key combinations for
cursor control, block operations, file operations, window operations,
etc. of joe. Obviously cursor operations is what I do most often. That's
why I even set eclipse to use Emacs keybindings. Fortunately, bash
already uses similar combinations.
