Updated my vim-config repo: https://github.com/anthonyjmartinez/vim-config with an important announcement: emacs is probably actually the best version of #vim once you've got EVIL installed.
I really only use EVIL because in the server (and embedded) administration game you're always going to find at least vi on your target host. Those motions will always be part of my day to day. I really only `M-x evil-mode RET` when I know I'll be in and out of remote systems all day.
Standard Emacs bindings are fine.
