I would make the argument that once you started working with a D IDE
with enough features, you'd probably find yourself addicted to it as
you are with PHP and Netbeans. At least, that's been my experience
across just about every language I've coded in.
/me likes my vi :) I know ides can mimic vi, or use vi directly to edit,
but for most purposes, vi + online docs suits my style well.
I don't dislike IDEs per se, I've used Visual Studio quite a bit and I
like it, though it's not supported on my current OS (Linux). I also think
NetBeans is pretty good, it certainly makes php coding more enjoyable.
But I will never, ever install an IDE for the sole purpose of reviewing
code. And I don't see the problem with making code more understandable
without an IDE. The point that named parameters a "useless" feature
because IDEs already take care of that is what I disagree with, not that
IDEs are useful.
