Can’t speak for vim (Which vim? There are so many of them), but Emacs
certainly can make use of a GUI. You can open multiple Emacs windows. You
can click and drag to select. You can cut/copy/paste between an Emacs
window and a window of another GUI app. You can use the mouse wheel to
scroll. You can display fancy “attributes” attached to text in a buffer --
that includes defining clickable buttons, almost as though it were a GUI
toolkit.
And then there is “emacsclient”, which lets me open a file for editing in
the currently-running Emacs instance, from the command line.
