Well, last time I checked vim has (even in text mode): Color syntax (and syntax checking when doing save) : https://github.com/scrooloose/syntastic Auto Completion and more: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=213 When I compile it can place me on the file and on the line where the error is... And the "colorized" syntax works on ssh connections, and you can have multiple windows in text mode with just one ssh connection with tmux: http://tmux.sourceforge.net It may not be a tool for everybody, editor and IDEs are alms a religious issue, and b=should be left to the individual taste, but vi (vim) is more powerful than it looks.
