hm. i really like LISP, but still don't get through emacs. After i
learned a bit LISP i wanted to try it again, and again i failed ;) i
know vim from the in- and out- side and just feel completely lost in
emacs.

i also like vim with gtk2 support more. not because of menu or toolbar,
which are usually switched off in my config, but because of antialiased
letters. I just don't like coding with bleeding eyes anymore ;)

*to me* vim just looks and feels much more smooth than emacs, so i don't
think that hacking LISP influences the choice of the editor much. it of
course makes people *try* Emacs because of its LISP support.
