I think there exist many and more fruitful ways to express your individuality than using IDE A rather than that ide B.
If the IDE is not important, why not standardize one: Makes it easier for administrators to setup new boxes, allows to pass the box to another member of your team, allows to use the same plug-ins and so on: Just think about Integration with version-Control: Cowboy-Coder A uses Eclipse which has a bug with Perforce-Integration, Cowboy-Coder B insists on using IntelliJ, which has no Perforce-Integration at all: And the Newbie-Coder comes in and is totally confused as there exist three ways of setting up your enviroment. No Standards at all are ok if you have a team-size of one... --- Ursprüngliche Nachricht --- Datum: 21.01.2003 16:20 Von: "James Childers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> An: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Betreff: RE: [OT] Eclipse IDE - The Two Towers > > I second this. Different people work in different ways; standardizing an IDE for every developer ignores this rather key fact of human nature.

Tight, and as fast as Eclipse. Plus I like the fact that I can do everything within it without using the keyboard. And it can do regexp search and replaces, which is one of the main things keeping me married to Vim right now. > > -= J > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Alex [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2003 9:16 AM > > To: Struts Users Mailing List > > Subject: Re: [OT] Eclipse IDE - The Two Towers > > > > On Tue, 21 Jan 2003, Daniel H.
