It&amp;#x27;s been decent so far. Evil mode is surprisingly good, and I really don&amp;#x27;t think it could come any closer to vim emulation for Emacs. Took a lot of googling around to set up some basic plugins that I need - projectile for CtrlP etc. I think the only thing that I need atm is Magit integration with Evil and I&amp;#x27;ll be good to go.&lt;p&gt;What has been amazing so far is that even after using vim for almost 3 years, I&amp;#x27;d been sort of afraid of diving deep into the config system (I made do with copy-pasting some popular vimrc files) and it was good enough, but in the short span of 2 days, I&amp;#x27;ve actually gotten to know more about emacs configuration style than I ever did about vim. And I suspect it will only get better as I start to learn Emacs Lisp.</text></comment>

If you want something more advanced, Emacs has support for cscope and GNU Global which give you more features.  Considering that he&amp;#x27;s interested in having something better than VimScript and wants org-mode, it seems that Emacs + Evil would really be the best fit for him.</text></comment>
