I've given up on emacs, save for use in vi-mode: [x]emacs
demands at least two hands:) Beside, my fingers know vi
automatically. --That said, isn't/wasn't there some kind
of IDE that let the user choose different toolsets??--
(For example, I might be happy with an integrated [n]vi
or vim + ctags + gdb) I've tried the KDE flavor of IDE
back while running SuSE but it's editor gave me fits;
kept hitting ESC and the [jk] keys, &c.
In the end, I think the IDE concept might not do that
much for productivity; it may be more along thr
'neat-toys' category. But I'll withhold my biases until
I learn differently. If there is no IDE that lets you
pick-and-choose, is there any that uses vi* as its
default?
