due to the uniqueness of our work, an IDE is probably not worth the expenditure and if I hear one more reference to vi I"m going to croak. These editors are far too weak to be considered for any type of serious work. even emacs is too weak to accomplish the task. we have a small number of users and currently most have linux workstations available to them.
Please enlighten me as to what task is so enormous that emacs can't do it, but for which an IDE is unsuitable. In fact, just enlighten me as to what's a "stronger" editor than emacs. I have difficulty envisioning this. I have met better development environments than Emacs + Speedbar + whatever-mode ( + some combination of useful elisp), but not many of them, and only in purpose-built environments.
