For example vim, when I had to use it it was near impossible to find out all commands
The learning curve was steep, aye. It was some time before I felt like I was doing more than just using an old-fashioned notepad with a few extras. I'd be happy if there were some cleaner way about it. I'd be overcome with joy if there were a GUI with an editor that was as powerful as vim and was intuitive.

Try sublimetext, it is far more intuitive than vim but just as flexible. (it is also far easier to customize/extend)

It's also practically unmaintained at this point. Pretty bad for a "commercial" product
Given I spend almost all of my time on windows, I very rarely use the terminal window. Almost all of my tools have a GUI, and the ones that don't (build scripts, etc) I have already automated.
That said, I have been meaning to put some time into powershell, as it looks quite useful for quick script-y tasks

I'm quite comfortable with vim at this point. I tried SublimeText2 for maybe two weeks? While I won't say it was like what I remember learning vim to be, I never found it to have that "Aha! This is awesome." moment. I might give it a go again eventually, but it just didn't quite win me over.

last dev build of ST3 is from october 17th, last update to ST2 is from july, it doesn't seem that unmaintained.
Obviously, emacs is the ultimate command line text editor
Really?
Why do you feel that way about emacs?
Personal life and your private thoughts always effect your career. Research is the intellectual backbone of game development and the first order. Version Control is crucial for full management of applications and software. The better the workflow pipeline, then the greater the potential output for a quality game. Completing projects is the last but finest order.

Lol. Good Ole vim vs. emacs.
Presently, I use a lot of CLI. Git, Ruby, vim, ssh, cal, volume, ant, rake. If not because of Internet and YouTube, I am probably okay just looking at CLI all day.

There's a joke about how they asked for an editor, not an operating system.
