Learning Vim is probably time well-spent, but until you do it's probably not that good a tool for fixing your problem.

Although Vim is indeed a very powerful editor, it's not particularly easy to use. Unlike your usual editors like Notepad and friends, it's a command-based editor, meaning you have to execute a command before you can input or change data. It's an entirely different paradigm than what you're probably used to (I may assume wrongly here).
