I installed eclipse. Didn't like it. > There's a whole bunch of little, practical things I like about emacs: > it's keyboard-centric, has incremental regexp searching, can > parse compiler errors, can open a zillion files at once, can > edit files on remote machines, has a reasonable amount of undo > history, a fairly lengthy set of mostly-working syntax-highlighting- > and-indenting modes, can nearly make sense of revision control information, That describes Komodo, apart from the incremental regexp. It may even be programmable in Python (I have never tried) (if you can call using python programming - ugh) It probably also describes kdevelop and lots of ther tools. I don't think you have captured the essence of emacs. But then again, I don't think you have to - I don't know many people left who actually use emacs to edit their code through choice - I use it when I on an ssh connection, and I always use the terminal version not the X version. If I really want to edit stuff in earnest I use Komodo or BBEdit or some such other tool. Now this may be because I can't be bothered to program up emacs to work the way I want it to, but there again I don't have time to do that so why not use something that works in a fashion close to how I would like it to?
