What's your favorite IDE/text editor when it comes to programming? Also, what's the setup in the banner up top? http://static.4-ch.net/images/boardtitles/programming.gif, that is.

The thing up top may be TextMate. I haven't used it.

I use eclipse on windows, and vi on bsd. I find that I can get more work done in eclipse, so that's what I prefer.

nvi. vim is worse than emacs.

17 Name: #!/usr/bin/anonymous : 2008-05-22 03:06 ID:Heaven

vim boots slower than emacs and does less. I don't see the point of it at all.

emacs for lisp, irc, and email. vi for editing text files.

Scintilla / Scite. I like my lightweight editor with good syntax editing. I shouldn't have to "wait" any time for a IDE to load.

Nano if im just making a small change in the shell =)

But then again, real programmers tap out their code to their hard drive manually with a ball point pen!

If you break into the command line on an OLPC, there's a copy of vim inside, aliased as vi because someone thought they were being clever. I've been learning to use it and like what I see.

Why nvi and not vim? Address some major differences

22 Name: XeroCint : 2008-05-22 17:33 ID:w13fS0g4

Notepad, Dreamweaver

the difference that bothers me the most is that vim is slow enough that i actually notice it.

Banner definitely looks like Textmate, which I use and recommend.
Can't see any good reason to use clunky editors that barely changed since the 70's and are a pain to integrate with all my desktop tools.

25 Name: #!/usr/bin/anonymous : 2008-05-23 06:02 ID:FNtBeRut

emacs for coding
ultraedit / notepad++ for quick and dirty text editing
vi on remote server (coz it's a pain to use emacs without my .emacs)

26 Name: #!/usr/bin/anonymous : 2008-05-23 06:15 ID:SakQtXCL

emacs, vim, textmate
