Large IDEs like VisualStudio, Eclipse or NetBeans are sometimes a bit slow. This is not surprising, since they are often written in Java. But they offer powerful functions for compiling and debugging, and they have syntax highlighting, code completion and support version control systems like SVN. I can not debug a program with Notepad, Emacs, VI or JEdit. Who wants to use VI anyway?
Oh, forgot to ask: how do you integrate TeX into your workflow. Is it entirely separate, or have you a way to integrate it into IDE and other tools.
I ask because I've started using it for class (theoretical computer science) and am surprised how powerful it is. It's several tools can generally be used in many different ways: in bash scripts, in other editors via plugins, and so on.
I'm considering using it for code documentation because most of the code I've written lately could best be described in terms of loop invariants and mathematical constraints and set membership and so on.
