Dear all,

I've been using vi / vim for the past dozen or so years, and I am not
planning to switch.

However, I sometimes need to quickly scrap together a page with some text
and illustrations. Copy some images from firefox, take some notes for
future reference etc. No export (besides the obvious PDF/PS for printing)
is necesasry. What would you advice to use?

Since your requirements obviously go past a simple editor (I'd recommend
nedit for that) try AbiWord.
