I used to be a pico weenie, always wanted to learn how vi worked. But
the un-intuitive part always turned me away.
Since then I've learnt how to use the thing, and I have to say, it's
much quicker to use than pico ever was.
There is one kinda amusing/annoying thing I keep doing though - I press
escape after typing anyting in any other editor, and keep wanting to
type :wq to save any changes... :)
