+1.
I use vim (bare text mode, no GUI, so no gvim for me) for literally
*everything*. Everything from system config files to coding to LaTeX for
word-processing to scripted graphics processing (thanks to imagemagick)
to povray scene files, there's almost nothing in my world that can't be
accomplished by vim. :)
Sometimes I wonder how the GUI-encumbered people get any work done at
all, what with needing to constantly switch their hands between the
keyboard and the rodent, wait for a 600MB application to load up 200MB
of eye-candy and paint the screen with 50 toolbar controls, 45 of which
that they never actually use, click through endless layers of nested
menus just to perform a single operation, etc.. ;-)
(OK, OK, so I'm a fossilized relic from the last ice age of '75, I'll
stop the GUI-bashing now. :-P You may carry on.)
