For 80% of development vi+xterm is more than enough. debuggers are for the rest 20% ;)


Amen brother,

It is not living in the past to use vim(vi)/emacs. RADs just give the impression of speed, sooner or later you are going to have to write code. I speak from experience, there has been more then once when I have spent to much time debugging third party components. It is not wise to turn up your nose at development tools that have been tried and tested.
