you are welcome, Brother.
I run both, Richard's emacs and Bram's vim, as I mentioned above. Both are very sophisticated editors, lisp machines, operating systems, or whatever. No wonder any javascript web based tool has no chance in *nix. ;-)

emacsclient
EMACSCLIENT(1) General Commands Manual EMACSCLIENT(1)
NAME
emacsclient - tells a running Emacs to visit a file
SYNOPSIS
emacsclient [options] files ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the emacsclient command. Full documentation is available in the GNU Info format; see below. This man-
ual page was originally written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution, but is not specific to that system.
emacsclient works in conjunction with the built-in Emacs server.
You can either call emacsclient directly or let other programs run it for you when necessary. On GNU and Unix systems many programs con-
sult the environment variable EDITOR (sometimes also VISUAL) to obtain the command used for editing. Thus, setting this environment vari-
able to 'emacsclient' will allow these programs to use an already running Emacs for editing. Other operating systems might have their own
methods for defining the default editor.
For emacsclient to work, you need an already running Emacs with a server. Within Emacs, call the functions `server-start' or `server-
mode'. (Your `.emacs' file can do this automatically if you add either `(server-start)' or `(server-mode 1)' to it.)
When you've finished editing the buffer, type `C-x #' (`server-edit'). This saves the file and sends a message back to the `emacsclient'
program telling it to exit. The programs that use `EDITOR' wait for the "editor" (actually, `emacsclient') to exit. `C-x #' also checks
for other pending external requests to edit various files, and selects the next such file.
If you set the variable `server-window' to a window or a frame, `C-x #' displays the server buffer in that window or in that frame.
OPTIONS
The programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').
-n, --no-wait
returns immediately without waiting for you to "finish" the buffer in Emacs.
-e, --eval
do not visit files but instead evaluate the arguments as Emacs Lisp expressions.
-s, --socket-name=FILENAME
use socket named FILENAME for communication.
-f, --server-file=FILENAME
use TCP configuration file FILENAME for communication. This can also be specified via the `EMACS_SERVER_FILE' environment variable.
-a, --alternate-editor=EDITOR
if the Emacs server is not running, run the specified editor instead. This can also be specified via the `ALTERNATE_EDITOR' envi-
ronment variable.
-d, --display=DISPLAY
tell the server to display the files on the given display.
-V, --version
print version information and exit
-h, --help
print this usage information message and exit
SEE ALSO
The program is documented fully in Using Emacs as a Server available via the Info system.
