When I'm not in IntelliJ, I'm using Vim. I prefer vim as an editor, but I much prefer IntelliJ as a code organizer.

I know vim and *ix pretty well, but I frankly like that I don't have to spend time looking up or memorizing how to do an occasional task when a well-organized hierarchical menu will do it for me.

I don't get paid to fiddle with my coding environment, and I don't mind outsourcing that process to someone who is thinking hard about how to make my life easier. I am not creating additional value for my startup by playing with a few extra plugins to do what an IDE does more efficiently.

Previously Vim (MacVim actually) but been giving Emacs a world to expand my understanding if nothing else. Same with Sublime Text 2 albeit a bit less since others who were on the Vim/Emacs side have starting praising it so giving that a bit of a world too.
