I'm editor-promiscuous: emacs, vi (vim, usually), acme (on plan 9), and ed.

Editors are kind of like programming languages---If you find one that is
good enough to have attracted enough smart people as users, then you can
probably make yourself a better person by learning through humble direct
experience why they think it's so great.
