Nice to meet you, rumbu!
Now you know one!

Nice to meet you too, Paolo. Browsing through your posts, I saw
that you are using "mainly Mono-D" :) Don't tell me that you
are coloring the keywords in your code using a marker.
"Not using an IDE" does not mean "programming with cat" - most
text editors have syntax highlighting...
Anyways, I've also used to be one of these Windows developers
masochistic enough to use the command line. I've used it back
when I was programming in C#, which means I had to write .csproj
files by hand(deep down they resemble Ant, but Visual Studio
seems to be writing all sorts of crap in there) and build the
projects from the command line using MSBuild, but it was worth it
because it means I could build seamlessly from Vim, and I could
write deployment scripts that run on the server.
That being said - when I said "used to be" it's not because I'm
no longer a "masochist", but because I'm no longer a Windows
developer(so yes, I'm no longer a masochist...) - so you can say
I was already in the Linux developer mindset and it's no surprise
I preferred the command line. Even back then, I was disturbed by
the fact that so many programmers feel uncomfortable with the
idea of typing textual commands to make computers do things...
