I'm not touching KDE again for a while. I got nailed pretty bad with a NVidia/Konsole/KWin, and I really wasn't using much of KDE. That said, I might poke KDevelop again; I haven't poked it in years. Geany is new since I last dug around. I do like text environments, though. > > You might also start reading comp.os.linux.development.apps on Usenet, > if you don't already do so.
