I understand.

IMO, comparing Vi and Emacs does not make sense. Vi is an editor,
Emacs is an environment. You can just compare Vi to the default
editing program run by Emacs. Emacs can also run a Vi-like editor
(Viper), if you like - I like so ;-)

Indeed Emacs allows you to run two editors at once! (Viper and the
default one)

BTW, I'm waiting for a pure Viper solution I'm sure Lennart is still
keeping for him ;-)
