I use Gvim for all editing, including all forms of TeX, columns
submitted to my newspaper editors, programs (Tcl etc.) and emails.
The virtue is I do not have to learn and relearn a new editor for
each. And my custmizations such as F2 to justify each paragraph
ragged right, are common for all. I even assign F keys for
running pdftex or context on a file named book.tex (every book I
work on is in a separate directory so all of them are called
book.tex.) I have an F key for "acroread book.pdf"
Just FYI. I doubt if I am the only one.
