Anyone else out there develop software on Linux ? What do *you* use as a development environment ? I guess I've been spoiled by the usability of MSVC, but I'm finding the move to Linux for development beyond cc a bit of a struggle.
Spoilt by MSVC? Aaaargh! It drives me up the wall, only being able to have one useful-size window open at the time, windows that can't be moved outside the "master" window or that insist on snapping into silly places anytime I try to move or resize them, text that is illegible unless it's large, compiler messages that won't linewrap forcing horizontal scoll to read anything, massively undocumented APIs, and wholesale faffing about with crap like dll[im|ex]port, no graphical environment for designing graphical apps (in the manner of glade). AAARGH! It's like being back in the 1980s on a VT100 terminal, except that I've been spoilt by over a decade of something vastly better. -- Nick Kew -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
