My problem with DrScheme (I used it at University for Scheme) is that it's all in one big memory-hogging blob. I used it as a bracket-highlighting editor for Clisp in Windows, but I found that it was hogging 90mb of memory! So now I use Nedit, and CLisp in a console window. I do use an IDE for C++ quite heavily, but here's my argument against one for Lisp: You don't need it. You can set breakpoints in the code with break and single-step, trace, and view variables and even run functions/code from the REPL. I only wish Visual Studio had one. But then again, I wasn't too keen on SLIME with EMACS (EMACS's speed is like working with an old teletype) and so I don't know the benefits vs using Clisp from the console.
