Not something that an emacs user would like; there has been a Vim-compatible
editor available.

Not that I know of.

Except for using it for email, yes. I still use other mail programs (though
the newest version of Celeste is getting pretty good).
I do use Ian's Telnet package, so I can have a regular shell session running
in a Squeak window, so I use Vim to edit external files.

Yes. If you get the OSProcess plugin there is very good integration with the
native command-line tools, as well as a shell that can intermix Squeak
expressions in pipelines with other programs.
I'm assuming you're running some kind of Unix; I don't know how the two
packages I mention work on Windows or other systems.
