Ah, good old days. I first cut my teeth on a DEC PDP-11. We had a bunch of VT220s, some VT100s, and a lonely VT52 in a corner. And a couple of lineprinters, but I don't think they really wanted kids logging into 'em, in general. So I learned EDT. Which actually served me fairly well, as I did a bunch of my dissertation in an updated version of that (on a Decstation). But in the vi(m) / Emacs wars, I tend to firmly come down on the side of: pico. (nano?) I'm not a sysadmin; if I need to do anything more complex than just "cat >> test.txt" in a terminal, I want something simple which has the commands I need clearly labeled on the bottom.
