The word 'simple' in combination with 'vi*' or 'emacs' just for editing
a value is grotesk. 'vi*' or 'emacs' for sure have got advantages for
some purposes, but for editing a value I can't imagine something more
complicated than using one of those editors. IMO the right tools are
'echo', 'printf', 'sed' or easy to use editors such as 'nano' or even a
GUI editor such as 'xed', unless a user for some other reasons does use
'vi*' or 'emacs' on a daily basis.
