There's always one. You aren't helping the case for console apps with
that one at all. :-)
Not necessarily since you can run emacs in a non GUI mode and create
multiple shell buffers. Each of these can be scrolled/split etc. (In
fact the original reason I started using emacs back in the late '80s was
the ability to connect to different machines and run remote shells as
well as remotely view/edit files via archie...a kind of prototypical web
for those too young to remember! And all on a VT220... :-)
But the OP wasn't specifically asking about console apps just the use of
"Linux as an IDE" and emacs, even in its GUI format, definitely plays in
that space, it can use grep/errors/trace etc. as well as present
multiple 'consoles'.
But then emacs can also be considered an IDE in its own right so its
maybe a special case.
