Re: OT: The so called "steep learning curve" of vim...

In my personal opinion, saying that "Vim's learning curve is steep"
is nothing but a gross exaggeration. Why should it be? Are Vim's
potential users computer illiterates, incapable of adapting to simple
albeit new concepts? Highly improbable. Are they not learning to
use many other and much more complex computer programs and their
ever changing new versions?
I remember I moved to Vim after using for years a very different
family of text editors (Kedit and THE) with which I was greatly
efficient. Yet, it only took a very short period of time and no
serious effort to change my view of text editing and my work habits.
Steep learning curve? Oh, please ...
