OT...

In my opinion, the only useful feature of these IDEs is "code refactoring"
(aka: projectwide, context-sensitive renaming), but kdevelop is lacking in
this regard. If you use fltk (or projects without QT-moc requirements),
there is no real gain. I'd suggest against using the kdevelop project
management entirely if you want to target windows or cross-build easily in
the future.

vim, with sessions, directory buffers, quickfix, omnicomplete and cbrowse
does 90% of what kdevelop does and much better. There is no "project
management" though, but by working with sessions this is hardly a problem.

I tried several IDEs in the years (including xcode, vs, devc++ and
code:blocks recently), still, my favourite is RHIDE (a borland builder
clone), just because it is barebone. Yet, both vim and emacs are superior
in many, many ways now.
