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)

@h I love the navigation in vim, by word, sentence, and line. I also have a remapping of "f" that takes the cursor to the first word that begins with the letter, instead of the first instance of the letter.

@Steve vim navigation, definitely. Remapping and extensions is beyond my immediate scope, but they will be a thing for sure, so that other people can make idiomatic editor support more complete.
