unfortunately the nix philosophy of using many small tools, each specific to one task rather than one monolithic tool stands in the way of developing such a thingie. Lakhs of progammers worldwide do fantastic stuff without these. The problem with integrated development enviornments is that the more sophisticated they get, the more the programmer is restricted to specific languages/frameworks/tools. In our world, we get much more freedom and flexibility - which leads to innovation and thinking out of the box. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
