Heh,
I'm definitely _not_ going to get in a text editor religious war with
you along the lines of "emacs is evil; why it should be eradicated",
however true that may be. :-).
Personally, when I don't use vim, I use BBEdit, and have done for more
than a decade. Over my 20-odd years as a Mac user, I've used BBEdit
almost exclusively. Vim came into regular use in the last couple of
years, because a co-worker and I have written a bunch of scripts that
help us be productive in our company's codebase.
