They are used a lot but I don't think they could be called industry standard. Tons of people run vim, emacs and such aswell the occasional vendor provided IDE. Probably like 60% of software engineers run IntelliJ.
I am yet to find a job where a single person uses Vi(m) or Emacs. And I've been to some big companies.
Perhaps nobody says they use it out loud although knowing vim users (and being one myself) they tend to be very willing to share how bad a mouse is for productivity while programming and how using vim is the ultimate solution. As for emacs I only ever have seen greybeards use it and it dosen't to have had much of a revival with the newer generations.
