what about using vim with your terminal set to full-screen mode? Edit: or in-terminal emacs ;) iTerm for Mac OS X has a nice full-screen mode

Honestly, I'd like to do this but have a margin on the sides but haven't figured out how.

I would forever be your e-servant if you know how to do that. I'm sure I could figure out some hack, but it's just something I'd rather not work on.

hmmm sorry don't know how to do that. one semi-gross hack is to simply open up 3 vertical buffers in vim/emacs and have two of them be empty :)

Aquamacs: SHIFT-ALT-ENTER full-screens a frame. For side margins you can look at "fringe" settings.
