I haven't said they are useless. I still doing some tasks in text editors, but I'm using visual ones to do 99% of work. Course everything could be done with natepad, but would you use notepad to to edit RTF files for example if thare are lots of powerful visual editors to do the same thing but much faster (e.g. WordPad, m$ Word etc)?

As I said above, it's 21st century today. So these reasons mean almost nothing now.
