No problem, was a kind of fun ;)

I use Sublime Text 2 for editing, it’s compatible with Textmate packages and 
has a pretty good package manager plugin to install many cool plugins :)
GTKwave is also very nice, the only downer is it’s relying on X environment.

BTW: have tested GHDL-mcode against icarus-verilog with a CBCTDES design, which 
I have written in both languages. The compiled binary of GHDL is pretty good, 
it simulates in
1/6 of the time the binary of icarus-verilog needs to simulate the same (ported 
from VHDL into Verilog) design.
