I like to think I use the best tools for the job at hand - without prejudice. Most recently, I wrote a perl script that writes code for me. It handles writing code that takes signals from roughly 2000 simulated X-38 flight vehicle sensors (as described in our digital data library), packs them into a structure, and ships them across an RS-422 line to the flight computers. It makes sense to do it this way. I've written sed/awk scripts that process the JSBSim code as needed for various edits. I've set up and maintained CVS repositories for several projects. I've even used patch/diff. I don't like it. I like to see exactly what is going into our code. The IDE to display color-coded changes allows me to more easily catch mistakes made by others, and to pick and choose those changes I wish to implement. Using this kind of a tool leverages more of my senses. Give me a lever ...
