what editor do you guys use and recommend ?
>>
>>54975133
Sublime Text 3

>>54975133
atom

>>54975133
Atom.

Bitches love power mode.

Sublime Text 3 locally.
Vim for most remote stuff (the machines I remote into often have my .vimrc file).

Both are pretty heavily customized, so I'd be afraid of having to start over (especially with vim). I thought about switching entirely to vim but it seems like getting LaTeX working the way I want would involve a lot of work.

I also love Sublime Text 3, and I really tried using it for that language I use the most (Java, and I know, I suck, blah, blah), but I found out I can't be as productive without Eclipse's Inteligent Code Completion of the Code Recommenders Plugin: http://www.eclipse.org/recommenders/

I know that there are some plugins that try to accomplish this in Sublime Text, but they end up providing autocompletion for words present in all your files or something like that, which is good, but not good enough for me.

As for the rest of the stuff, Sublime Text 3 all the way.

Notepad++ looks pretty good when it's themed like that.

Emacs is a cool editor because you can split windows and run eshell in one of the buffers. This allows you to manipulate files and compile stuff next to what you're editing.
>>
>>54975133
What theme? I like notepad++ but it looks like shit by default.

Forgot to add picture for example. It's the one present on the like site. It removes the need for me to go check in my other files/online what some methods take as arguments, etc.

an IDE. For C# and C++ I use (and love) Visual Studio

Why isn't Visual Studio written in Javascript? Do they hate progress?

I actually prefer mg to emacs.

Am I insane?

Notepad is all you need

nvi
>>
>>54975133
Now just what theme is that?
>>
if no gui: nano

if gui: notepad++

it's awesome in windows and works very well under wine in linux
>>
Why use anything other than nano?
>>
>>54975293
gedit all day, everyday
>>
>>54975133
What you plan to write will influence what editor you will find more productive with minimal plugins and enhancements.

Assuming you do web programming, I'd like to put brackets on the table. Live edit, Quick edit, and processor support are all built in.

If you don't need to work with your files over network, kate is the best editor.

Vim
>>
>>54975917

I haven't tried it either, but that and some other plugins work by having eclipse running in the background with something called Eclim View. If I'm opening up Eclipse and using something out of it at the same speed Eclipse does, then might as well just code inside Eclipse.
