I used to work with Netbeans at my employer. Works quite well with Linux, especially if you use Java 1.4 for faster Swing Performance. But all the GUI IDEs are to mouse orientated for my taste, my personnal favorite is XEmacs. Together with the excellent packages JDEE (jdee.sunsite.dk), Emacs Code Browser, ECB (http://home.swipnet.se/mayhem/ecb.html), and Xrefactory (http://www.xref-tech.com, Shareware) you get an IDE which equals IDEA in power. You need some time for the configuration, though. As a former Windows user you may want some additional packages too, like CUA-mode, which gives you standard cut&paste. As the 'in Emacs' debuggers are rather unstable, you are better off using jswat for this purpose. If someone tries this road, I can send him a litte lisp package, which starts jswat with the setting from JDEE. But the rewards of using emacs are high, you can even read your news and mail in it, no need to leave your favorite editor, never :-)) Ole Arndt =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
