I agree completely. The only nice thing is auto completion and those popups where you can navigate a class or argument list (but then, vim can do auto completion as well and code insight support is in development). I'd like to cite an old saying: "Fast, fat computers breed slow, lazy programmers." Midnight Commander, make, vim and a compiler is all you need (and we can discuss about the need for mc ;-) But I fear that most programmers today are so used to adapt to their tools (IDE's) instead of adapting their tools to their need that they don't know any better. God, I'm only 26 but think I sound like an old fart already :-( -- Marc Haisenko http://darkdust.net Today is Sweetmorn, the 37th day of Bureaucracy in the YOLD 3171
