I have been using evil for several months now. It works very very well. I also had tried previous VI emulation attempts (viper, vimpulse) but none stuck. Evil has. It works particularly well with org mode in my experience. Highly recommended if you want vi + emacs, as I do. -- : Eric S Fraga (GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D) in Emacs 24.0.90.1 : using Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.582.g36939)
