Emacs is a somewhat old-fashioned/ traditional[*] Lisp implemenation
with some built-in support for text editing. Which implies one can write
applications for it. The 'IDE' features (except SCM integration) are
IMHO less useful, at least for me, as my development environment is
usually 'disintegrated' --- the files I'm editing almost never reside on
the machine the editor runs on but (literally) anywhere else on the
globe. But I've been using Gnus for USENET and e-mail since some time in
1999 an I'm very happy with it (no sub-standard text editors for writing
text, not even mails!). More recently, I've also started using an elisp
IRC client as my employer as dropped Skype for 'team chats' (great
improvement).
