Emacs and VIM are as autistic as you make it to be. You can literally spend 30 minutes copying and tweaking a configuration file from the internet, memorize about 10 shortcuts, and still be very efficient with it.

Does vim have auto-complete? If yes, how do enable it? I hope it's doesn't require a plugin or a keybinding that involves Ctrl

Support for my language of choice is not as good as it is in emacs, unfortunately. I'd love to ditch emacs for a variety of reasons. I love it, and it's the best option out there for me, but god does it suck.
I'd love to use an editor/IDE that looks good, handles fonts properly and even allows for ligatures, has sensible keybindings by default, and has a good scripting language.
>>55605436

>auto-complete
>keybinding
Protip: If you need to press a key, it's completion, not *auto*completion.
Vim only supports completion out of the box, but there are plugins for autocompletion.
Autocompletion is overrated, I prefer being able to press a key to complete instead of waiting half a second for the autocompletion to kick in.

Not only that - it also wastes a lot of space. Compare the two

Your renderer is currently set so that it does neither hinting nor smoothing.
You should at least try fixing one of these issues.

Yeah it's... a bit plain.
I haven't modified HTML yet cause it's been a long time I last wrote something in that language, but I did change XML so that element contents are shown in white and bold.

There is no executable code in this link, so you don't need to worry about malware. It's just a license key. And it's a master key, so as many people can use it as they want.

Every editor sucks. Some of the larger code-editing platforms support some of these features, bu there is not a one which supports all of them. Particularly correctly aligning and rendering fonts.

>or can properly align text at all without relying on the font itself for alignment
Font rendering is the operating system's job, and how a font is supposed to appear is the job of the font itself. If an editor were to force align a font that is not fixed width, it would be acting contrary to the design of the font itself.
>properly handle images or other non-plaintext-data
Text editors are not WYSIWYG office suites. Their job is to edit text.
>still no editor which properly supports textual ligatures required to render non-Latin fonts correctly
Possibly a legitimate criticism.
>still no editor which represents tabular data correctly
Text editors are not Excel.
>still no editor which does highlighting correctly, via language semantics and not hashing symbols arbitrarily to colors (I know what defun is, emacs, don't fucking highlight it. Highlight the use of global variables/constants, or local variables/constants when they're used within their respective scopes.)
Make one. Alternatively, program in Ruby, where scope is designated by sigils (@, @@, and $) attached to the beginning of variable names, which will be highlighted.

>>55608133
Font alignment is not font rendering. They're completely separate. You can have font alignment while still having font rendering done by the operating system.
>Text editors are not...
I said "editors". Even at the bottom I specifically said "code-editing platforms". Stop being obtuse.
>>55608178

OP Here. You're God
>>55608240
Mate I understand your hostility towards the editor, I get it, more than 4 commands makes the brain hurt. But once you figure it out, it's incredibly fast.
Lets say for example you have the string of text:lor|em ipsum dolor
and | is the curson, and you wanted to jump to the next instace of the character "p" all you have to do if type fp to jump to it.
Where in a normal editor one might use the arrow keys/ctrl-arrow keys, or even use the mouse. That is a lot more keystrokes and a lot more time wasted.
Try vimtutor for yourself, you only need yourself to back up my claim :^)

>>55608404
I'm not hostile towards the editor. I've used vim for years and am very familiar with it. I have just literally never seen anyone make your claim and then back it up by having somebody else time them. Don't be passive aggressive.
>>55608133
Text alignment is pretty much exclusively the editor's job, you tool. Otherwise all text would just be represented in the editor as a single stream with \n every so often and not indented or broken into new-lines. Instead, those \n characters are used to tell the editor the display linebreaks.
>nags you to pay
it's 2016, I don't want to use a nagware.
The icon looks ugly as shit too. Doesn't even match with the theme of the editor.
Emacs is just too comfy for me to leave, anon. I would rather have all the features for free then have to pay $70 just to not be nagged. Also, Emacs has community packages, better functionality, and is totally Gnu (for you freetards out there).
