To your knowledge, emacs is about 1 Mb. Also, there is jove, which is a scaled-down
version of emacs for non-window terminals, and it is actually slightly smaller
than vi!!
vi wins a gold medal in userUnfriendliness, as far as I am concerned, it's a piece
of trash. jove and emacs can be learned in ~ 1 hour.
