This is my primary motivation for using emacs, and JDE for java. I use many different languages. And often ones for which big flashy IDE's are not available. Besides why would I want to learn three different ways of accessing version control for instance? With Emacs it's always there, and its always the same.

For many years I have used Java quite happily without a debugger, and, of course, its quite feasible to do this. But recently I spent 5 months writing perl. Now this is a language which its nearly impossible to write without a debugger. Coming back to Java, I find that I miss it quite a bit. Phil
