Empirical evidence? ;) FWIW, Org-mode has its own "modal" editing feature: org speed keys. This enables one to edit and reorganize the structure of org files with single keystrokes. > So, how many of you here also use Vim? :) For quick editing (e.g., config files), I use vi(m). For anything else, I use emacs. Both are fantastic tools. Best, Matt
