That said, VNC/X11/RDP would suffice for my old-fashioned coding environment (emacs/shell/make). The only things i use IDEs for nowadays are Java (IDE necessary!) and JS (because emacs can't indent it worth a darn ;). But a collaborative editor - i'd try that. -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal "Freedom is sloppy.
