Have you actually read that article? In particular the part where he
says:
I have to admit that temporary files are at work here. But the
cleanup is automagic and transparent to the user. Also, just to
prove that I'm not a vi nazi, vip is not restricted to just that
editor. It will check your VISUAL and EDITOR environment variables
and behave accordingly.
