Question of the Day: Vi or Emacs? Why?

[redrose]

I need to learn a stronger editor than pico, and I don't know which of these to choose.

I expect to be working in a unix/linux system for much of my career.

Vi allows regular expressions, which could be very useful.

Emacs is extensible, which could be very useful.

Any thoughts?

Yeah, emacs probably does, but I'd have to figure out how.
