I don't know vim, but emacs is *not* a command line editor.  It's a 
full-screen, text-mode only editor.

If you're looking for a true command-line editor, look at some of the 
editors I was using in the 60's and early 70's when we only had 
printing terminals like the ancient teletypes.  You gave them commands to go 
forward and backward in the text being edited, to search for particular 
strings because how else are you going to tell them where to go when 
you can'd even see the text you're editing (perhaps you had a 
line-printer listing so you could tell it what string to search for) 
and it wouldn't even show you the line you were working on unless you 
gave it a command to do so.

Those were command-line editors.
