Its a good idea to know at least how to get by with vi. Two reasons:

- it needs about the least terminal features to work correctly (this 
includes being able to work without arrow or function keys), so if your 
system gets completely borked you may need it to get out of the hole 
without data loss.

- its colon command mode is very powerful and can make repetitive changes 
much better than editors that don't understand regexes.
