Don't forget MicroEmacs! I've been using it ever since it floated around usenet in 1985 or so.

I'm curious, why don't you use GNU Emacs?

Too heavy. MicroEmacs loads instantly.

MicroEmacs is small and lightweight. I port it to whatever machine I'm using, and it works nicely in a remote tty window. It doesn't need a customization language, as I just change the source code.

Recently, I added color syntax highlighting to it, and support for unicode characters.

		For how long have you been coding without syntax highlighting?
