Request for comments:

Users and fanatics of Emacs, vim, Sublime, Textmate, Github Atom and other such text editors, I would like to know what are your ten or twenty most loved features and keyboard shortcuts in your respective text editors.

I'm working on hot-editing hypertext that keeps links updated (like Xanadu, but read/write) and I would like it to be a tool that designers, coders, and content creators feel at home with. (not an Office clone like Google Docs)

@kajiwara The mail interface is probably beyond my scope, not trying to fully re-implement emacs clone, but trying to provide a relatively familiar interface for users of different text editing environments, who are used to a certain way of doing things so that they can be immediately productive carrying their skills along with them.

@h yeah, sadly emacs is much better as a platform for other things than as a text editor
