Yup. I tend to use Gnu Emacs almost exclusively. I liked its keystrokes 
over vi and later I became intrigued by its internal Lisp interpreter.

nice programmability, too. But I remain subscribed to Lisp. AFAIK vi is 
the first editor installed by many Linux flavors, so it's good to know it 
in case install goes wonky.

BTW, does sed count? I use it, sometimes, in command line etc. And cat, 
too, but this was only few times (there was a Linux once, where vi didn't 
install and I had to concoct a clone of grep that always returned only 
one thing, so that install could proceed).

I have read above paragraphs. Now I see that I am a bit strange and not 
like the merry people on the street. But at least I can do something with 
a cat that they never ever dreamt of.
