It's interesting that Cocoa emulates quite a few of them and so for editing a simple comment like this one, I can use the control characters I'm used to and be happy.
I have started using TextMate for Ruby on Rails code because it makes the tangle of subdirectories Rails employs a lot easier to deal with, and because it has some really great text highlighting and quote matching features that help a lot. So the lock-in isn't total, it's just very close to it.
I still use emacs for anything that doesn't involve Rails. Rails files tend to be small and so the search differences haven't affected me nearly as much as I thought they would.
