Exactly.  Somewhat like this:

I say forget about TextMate.  emacs isn't as nice looking (arguably),
but it's tons more functional.  TextMate is really basic, but emacs has
some very advanced modes. (nxml-mode was written by a designer of XML,
so it's really good at what it does.  c-mode has been perfected by
hundreds of the best C programmers.  cperl-mode was PPI before PPI
existed.  even TT mode, CSS-mode, svk mode, etc. are great.)  The
disadvantage is that you have to RTFM.  If you're not doing that,
though, why are you programming?

Here's the emacs wiki.  Enjoy: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki

(And yes, their wiki is written in Perl.)
