As someone who starts vim as soon as I open a terminal, this brings tears of joy to my eyes. Now I can start every command with a bang!

....why?

Hack value, and a response to the person who just did it with emacs.

Bug report:

But this broke an old joke

"EMACS is an operating system with a poor text editor attached to it" and variants.

It's not a joke if EMACS it is now an OS as vim is.

In the other hand EMACS/Linux is a truly GNU/Linux distribution.
