Another ide is Forte for Java, downloadable from Sun. Judging on its slowness, I guess it is written in Java, too...
I am by no means an expert in Java or Java IDE, so I will not judge it. Anyway I found that to make it execute a large applet I had to modify one kernel variable. I wrote about this on the expert list, the message is the following: >I had problems running a fairly big applet in the Forte for Java 3.0 >with JSDK 1.3.1: the IDE started ok, but when I tried to execute the >applet I got an "out of memory" error (on a 128Mbyte machine). > >I found out that for some reason the threads-max kernel tunable was set >to 1024, which turns out to be too small for the IDE.
