I'm currently using Eclipse with CCW and I quite like it. Much depends on what you've been used to. I've worked in an Eclipse environment for several years and use it for all my day-to-day coding needs (Java, Scala, Clojure, CFML, HTML, JavaScript, CSS - supported by various plugins). > The other option that I've seen being popular is emacs with cake. I used Emacs many years ago and when I first started getting into Clojure I tried a few different flavors of Emacs again since it seemed to be the editor of choice for a lot of Clojure / Lisp people. I found it clunky - and it seemed (to me) like it really hadn't changed much in about 20 years (which is both good and bad). So I quickly settled back into Eclipse. > What am I missing out on? Thanks. If you're happy with Netbeans, especially if you're using it for other languages, I don't think you're missing out on anything. Switching IDEs is really a much bigger deal than a lot of people seem to think. You have to really immerse yourself in the new IDE and stick with it. You have to learn a lot of new stuff. Emacs fans will tell you it's worth it. Maybe it is. But "good enough" is a perfectly good reason not to switch. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
