currently I'm learning Emacs, and I'm loving it. For quick tasks (i.e.: config file, glue scripts) if emacs is not running (i.e.: connected on a server) then Vim.
For really stupid things, cat ;)

#26I generally use vim and have the ViAllOver input manager to add vi commands to other text editors.

Unfortunately, ViAllOver won't work in Komodo, TextMate, etc. since many editors don't use NSTextView.

#27Kate, mostly. Vim when I need to do a quick edit (I use xterms for a lot of stuff I do) or when logging in remotely.

Hmm, I've always found it odd how many people say they use emacs, but not for "quick" tasks. It's not like it takes long to start it up -- on my machine, emacs -f kill-emacs takes 0.12 seconds.

#30i'm a schizophrenic:
emacs - as a user, for lisp, xml, text, html templates, everything that takes time. Launched at morning.
vi/vim - as a root/admin, for editing config files, especially on remote machines
notepad.exe - on windows, very rarely
