Are editors and a lot of Python people use these. I went to a family reunion today and a cousin told me that when he's not programming in R, a statistically programming language, the other language he uses is Python and he prefers to use Emacs to vi whereas vi is the editor I've most heard associated with Python. Emacs is short for editing macros, but some also see the e as sort of standing for extensible, sort of. Both editors date back to the 1970s when remoting into another computer was slow and "expensive" and are optimized to do things with as few keystrokes as possible, hence they are hotkey happy.
