I have not used Eclipse for many years now. Back when P4's where the hot thing, NetBeans and Eclipse were so slow that it was a joke. Java apps just did not run fast at all. I have been using Anjuta and I still use Anjuta 1.5 but the newer versions are real bad by removing all the features I like almost to the point that Anjuta is little more then gedit.
So maybe Eclipse is do for another look. On the site eclipse.org I find versions for Java, PHP and for C/C++ developers. Is there one version of Eclipse that works for all? This web site does not explain much about that. That was a feature I liked about the old Anjuta, I could open all my source files with it. The new Anjuta thinks it is being smart by deciding for me that I would rather use other IDE's and tries to open different source files in any of a dozen other editores that suck just as bad as the new Anjuta. I need an IDE that lets me use a black background with colurfull syntax. I hacked the Anjuta 1.5 syntax files to give me a look much like the old Borland midnight theme and I find it much easyer to work with for long periods of time. I hate using a white background, and kdevelope has never been very cooperative on this issue. So if I cannot use Anjuta 1.5 I just use vim. So what is the deal with Eclipse? Is there one big install that will be the IDE of choice for all code languages or do I need to download all three Eclipse IDE's and use other IDE's for other code files?
