EMACS users sometimes add web browser and email client, among other things but, that’s a bit further than I go. The perf for either of the main two blows nearly any GUI editor out of the water and being able to pipe stdout/stderr to them is just the wonderful cherry on top.
I generally just say the letters; the amount of shit I get for saying gee en you…is not actually that much because I usually don’t interact with coding nerds via voice, only text, but if I did they would be livid

Hopefully tongue-in-cheek.
Because sure. Microsoft Word is the best IDE.
I personally prefer running wordpad with WINE, as I can’t afford an office subscription.
No.
Learn the difference between a word processor and a text editor.
