Depends on the programming language, but most programmers use polished ide's
these days - eclipse, visual studio, xcode...

I guess emacs had the promise of providing proper ide functionality like
code completion some day, but it never did.

I'm sure dynamic languages still have many users that don't use ides, but
even there are stronger shows than emacs (komodo, wing...).

And then, there are the lightweight editors (scite, editpad, Kate...)

In any case, emacs (and him) people are the wrong demographic to optimize
for, better target 'everyone else'
