Before downmodding me, please understand this is a serious question. I have been a long time emacs user, and probably will stay like that for long time to come. What is it that makes modern editors like Sublime and Atom look so nice compared to Emacs? The fonts, UI toolkit or just general bad design in Emacs? Whenever I look at some other editor, I am deeply dissatisfied with it when compared to Emacs. So, why can&#x27;t I have the best of both worlds. An editor that looks modern but is a Emacs at heart?
